    Cool project. Another retirement dream shattered. No laws in OK, to speak of, lots of water. Now I see that you get snow. At least in doesn't get below zero. Don't shatter that one, too. Info, check your PM's.

    Smog laws! Yes, I knew there was a reason why I moved to IL. I forgot about those pesky things. Sure there are federal laws, but if nobody ever checks or enforces them, then it's kinda the same as not having any, right? Unless of course you feel a moral obligation to protect the air or something weird like that. Isn't that what we have Californians for? I guess it's nice you guys do something usefull over there in CA, YA GAWDDAMNN YEAR ROUND SUNSHINE, OCEAN BEACHES, HOT BOAT BIKINI GIRL, HAVIN FUN, NON-SNOW SHOVELING, WINDSHEILD NOT HAVING TO SCRAPE MOTHERF**KERS! Not that I'm jelous or anything.

    you could always move here and have it. only problem is you never know what laws they are going to pass to take away your next enjoyment thing to do.

    That sounds like a real interesting project Ron.
    I seen the "Hurst Hemi Underglass" wheelstander car at a show several years ago and was amazed to see that they used a Casale V drive box mounted behind the rear axle so that let them mount the engine way back.
    Then the differential was aimed toward the back of the car.
    There were a couple blocks of about 2" square steel that touched the ground when the front end was way off the ground and that's what made a shower of sparks.

    Back in highschool the local gearhead took a Volkswagon beetle body and mounted it on a shortened Nova frame , Dropped in a 383 magnum out of a charger ,the engine was infront of you and completely open ,we sat in the back seat area , extended the steering shaft and was all direct drive, no driveshaft w/glide shifting to 9" narrowed rear w/ 5.66's :crossx:
    use ta freak lots of folks out when you pulled up to them in a bug with nobody in the front seat area then smoked the tires for blocks when you left the lights

    Went to visit the van today. they have the interior stripped and had some preliminary chop lines laid out. Decided on 8" of chop all the way around. And will probably roll in the remaining posts instead of widen the top to fit. Laid the tape out to represent where the top of the window will be.

    I think the front mark is still laid out at 6 when we were debating 6" or 8" worth of chop.
