This is my 1961 ragtop project that started out as a big nightmare, but I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Thanks! It's been a huge headache but it's coming along! Now it needs a big motor!
Looking good J. Did you put the beam on it yet?
Nope, the beam is going on another project.....stay tuned.
Car looks good, I know what you mean about a big nightmare. My homie Tywon had to stop me from kicking the car off jack stand one day. thanks Ty..
Looks nice, you've done a great job!

Want a friendly opinion? Kick that rear up a notch and give it a bit more rake.

I know, I figured I would do it when I put SAW torsions in it!
Whaddya got for an engine? If it isn't anything crazy, save the money for the torsions until you need em-- spend the money on more horsepower and a trans to deal with it.
Thanks! It just has a 1300 in it so I'm not going to spend anymore money on the little stuff. I need a new trans cause the 2nd gear syncro is shot so next is a built trans then a motor!
All it needs now is one of your big tubor motor's Marty!
