The car looks great, do you have any pics of the steering setup?

Very nice build, theres a junkyard close by me here in NC that has two of these Plymouth trucks id love to get my hands on but the owner of the yard is going to "fix em up" one day (been sittin there for years along with about 50 other 30's to 50's cars and trucks waiting to be "fixed up").

Nice truck, Im guessing you did a chassis swap on it?

Nice lookin truck, good job.

They make that spring to fit a 35 to 40 ford with split bones, using the factory setup with the spring in front of the axle. Its too short to work on the 35-40 with an unsplit wishbone. None of that matters anyway, like you said, the spring dont care what you mount it to. This guy was needing a...

Sorry, i gave you the wrong part number, it should be 58020374L. Its for a 35-40 ford using split wishbones, but the specific application doesnt really matter, if you need a 36 inch spring it should work.

Check speedway part # 91639108, 40 ford front spring. Its listed as 35 3/4and only cost 140 bucks.

Wish i had known about it sooner, we were down at Holden beach last wkend, do you have any pics?

Truck is coming along nice, and the frame is killer. I was wondering if you could tell me, how long are the hairpins you used in front? And also, how wide is your frame in front? Im just throwing some ideas around about what i want to do with mine and i really like the looks of yours. Thanks alot.

Thats why im askin.

Ive seen alot of guys that have their front spring mounted to their wishbones and im wanting to do the same thing on my truck. My question is, when the bones are at an angle from where they mount to the axle in the front, back to where they mount to the frame, does it put the spring pivot and...

Absolutely BAD A**! Excellent work.

Just paid $85 for 10 ft stick of 2x4x1/4 here, i bought a stick the same size abt 2 months ago at the same place for $120, so its come waay down.

I was talkin to a buddy of mine that has a plasma cutter and he thinks he might be able to get a hole cut through a spring with that, at least a decent enough hole that you could run a drillbit through it and clean it up, and maybe keep from wearing out a few of those drill bits. Anybody ever...

ouh506- What did you use to cut those springs with? would a chop saw do it? Im lookin to use the same type setup on the front of mine but i thought i might have to take them somewhere and pay somebody to cut em 4 me. Was there a special kind of drillbit you had to use to drill em with?

Thanks alot guys. My wife wouldnt let me put the truck in the garage til I made enough room for her car to park in there too so ive been at it all day,finally got the truck pushed in though and ready to start tearin it down. Ive got a few pics on the digital camera but ill have to get my son to...
