That's some nice ideas and work. That's my favorite collumn from speedway nice price and easy to install almost anywhere. Your Miller welder looks a lot like my old 110 model. I hope the damn thing never wears out.

Nice !!! using the old parking brake, the column looks great. I really like your ideal with the dash.

Nice work. I like the E-brake bracket. I have to do something similar for the T-85 that will be in my roadster.

Thanks all.  I do have an issue with Speedways column......The splines on the shaft and the splines on the detachable hub are way out of spec.  I can rock my steering wheel close to 1/8 back and forth when I grab it on opposite ends.  This one is going back....for a replacement because I do like every thing else about it.

It may look like I am doing some modifications to the dash but I am just patching in a new glove box opening due to the original one being rusted through.

Welder is a Miller sidekick 110....it has suited most of my needs so far.

Looks like a sweet find and one heck of a solid body!  I look forward to watching and hearing about your build.

That's what my welder is. I bought it cheap about 25 years ago, and have used it to weld brackets on snow plow blades, frames, and so on.   With it being only 110 power, it's really amazing.

Updates.  Have my wheel/tire combo dialed in.......





Floors are welded in and painted.....





Wedled in the patch panel on the dash, primed it and the firewall...





Now working on getting the motor/trans assembled and married up so I can work out my clutch pedal, steering  and headers

Gettin' closer........some plumbing left under the hood, exhaust,painting the firewall and dash and she should be ready to fire.....maybe a couple months after that she'll be road worthy.

Looks really great. The best part of a build is hearing them come to life for the first time. Looking forward to hearing how it went.

Chuck, nice progress.  It's fun when you can see the light at the end of the tunnel :D
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!
