So here it is. You guys answered my questions and were very helpful to get things to this point. It's not a T-Bucket? Look at the Full tube cage body and you will see Model T. I used dimensions from various body manufactuers ('23 mostly) It's just a really tall bucket. You load in from the back stepping up on the push bar/shock mount. The sides and cowl will be aluminum, windows (side) Lexan open top and back. The rad will be rear mounted with dual electric fan and the side panels extend past to hide them. The small block will have only low mounted alt. up front for that naked dragster look. Rear suspension is quarter eliptiacal and front '40 Ford with model-a split wishbone and 11" metric G.M. disc. Rear is '91 S-10 (10 bolt chev.) Thanks again for your support. I have more dumb questions.
Jeff.

Ron, You layed it out for me. Your plans got the ball rolling.I got the concept, I did the research,I executed the plan. This site is an excellent resource for first time builders. I may have been in the metal trade for over 20 years but ,I have never built a car. I've built Breweries, Bicycles, and Machines. Thanks for being a standup guy and passing on your wisdom.

Regards, Jeff.
