Front notch aligning provides the point of solder

sandro are you going to mount yor i beams to those front c notches you made? or is that where the springs are going to mount to.


this is going to be something to watch. did you guys see the way the firewall is on his bump? the heater sets into the firewall and into the engine compartment.

Our bumpside firewalls are like that too.

i dont think they are quite the large though. next time i'm outside ill look at the parts truck and get a fresh look at it.

I call the household "frame" in the "C" this is just a notch feedback not to go out of alignment and level.

the suspension is twin i bean in the old chassis I will change to arms control with air-balloon

I am sorry my English is somewhat weak!

I can understand you just fine!!!

Looks very good!!!

I look forward to more pictures!!!

Did you check the level of the floor before starting?

[stangconv]

^^^ Does that matter?

Seems to me (in my mind anyways) that he could be building it on the side of a hill, but as long as its up in the air and his level is showing good he should be fine.

But I have no experience at all building a chassis, or framework. SO ...

The bubble in the level will always read true level but if you don't start off by setting level what the frame is propped up on then you are defeating the purpose of the level.

[sandro-74f]

but the floor is not 100% level but was capped on top of the chassis cavaletes

[sandro-74f]

the chassis has been capped 100% and locked with stops and starts the frame and Pontedo already capped with solder ...
and soon after the "C" notch up soon will join a number goes turns only
