1917 model t.
1976 Chevette Motor, trans, and rear end.
Vega steering box.
It started out red and was in a barn durring a tornado.

I like the spring hanger design for the rear. I canned the idea of using an original t spring because it was too wide but that design worked great!

If you get enough flex in that spring the end would be driven into the brake backing plate ... not good!!

At 25 - 30 mph shouldn't be an issue. We hope...


The e-break setup is cool too. I'll some pic of under the car.
Oh and the bottom radiator hose. LOL. Joe came up with that one. I'll get a pic of it.
