Shes a roller!!!.Drive shaft should be done in a couple days.....I have some plumbing to rough-in and one sma;; body repair before it goes back on the chassis.

Looking good...  You have come a long way on your project ,Is that Chassis Enginerring Motor mounts?  cross member also looks like  CE,,,,, And where did you get your fuel tank from....thanks for the photos  give me some motivation...LOL

Real nice, I can't wait to see it on the chassis. That will be a large step in it's evolution.

Chucks36

Thanks guys.....it's the original tank that has been sandblasted inside(best as possible)and out, sealed on the inside and POR15 on the outer.

That is really well done, very clean. ;)

Your tank looks like new on the outside, and rest of the frame is shaping up.

Very nice, congrats on getting it to roller stage.  That's a big step.

Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

Looks nice, Chucks, can't wait to see the body back on.
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn

Who is the rear shock mounting bar from? I ask because I have the same bar in my inventory that was ordered for a 36 coupe.

Chucks36

That's part of the CE kit which included the springs, hangers, shackles, shocks, U-bolts, lower shock plate..Etc.  Both my tranny and engine mounts are both CE......looking at it now my steering shaft(s) may be tricky due to the engine mounts.

Steering has always been a little tricky, and my roadster since I built headers for it will be a job. Thank God and borgeson for steering joints,

Latest progress...finished up the chassis and we threw the body back on last night.   That went so well that we pushed our luck with the motor/trans....had no issues with that either.

Nice work Chuck!  That's a huge step.  It's got to give you a little incentive to continue.  Great pics.
