Have visited this site several times, lots of great ideas. Started a build about a month ago. Will try to figure out how to post a few pictures.
He's where I'm at.

Looks like you have a good set of starter parts. Just one thing most t buckets that I see the coilovers are installed with adjustment nut on the bottom. What is going to power the beast.Looks like you are going to have a smooth ride with your radius rods mounted so close together maximum swing equals smoother ride

Hello Wade an welcome, what part of the state are you in. I'm on the coast drop me a line. ...Bob
Greetings Wade and welcome from the sunny hills of Colorado.
Thanks for the pictures. You're well ahead of me on your build.
This might not be the busiest site on the web, but you'll not find a better group to help with your project and as rodding friends.

Welcome to the site Wade!!! You've done great for only being a month in to your build. It's obvious you know your way around a welder ( the shelves and table). Also cool to see an ol' coffee grinder still being used. Do keeep us posted on your progress. Don't be afraid to ask questions here. We're all about helping each other.

yes it's a 9"
I live about ten minutes from Gadsden, AL
"Coffee grinder" I assume welder, never heard them called that.
I have two started, made a great deal with a friend and he still wants to go ahead after this long, than goodness. Bought the bodies about eight years ago, divorce got in the way. Oh well at least I've finally got started.

Before the divorce I had about 150 junkers, could not move all of them, but did save a few. currently back to about fifty. New wife doesn't mind either.
I saved all my 9" ford rears amoung a few select parts and pieces.
I plan to use a 350 sbc
Friend wants a 5.0 sbf, any one have a picture of a good way to make mounts for the ford? Something clean looking? I'm using a biscut type mount on the sbc, would like to do about the same on the ford.
Thanks for the kind words.

Here's a few shots of the SBF engine mounts on my '27. They are made from some 4130 steel tube and a couple of 4 bar bushings. Pretty simple to make and are pretty clean IMO.
