I thought I'd start my build thread and share some pics for you guys. 36 ford running a 303 olds tri carb, lasalle trans and a frankland quickchange. I traded a 78 shovelhead that was sitting around for the last 3 yrs. The PO gave me a load of extras all new wide whites, firestone cheaters, 53 olds guages, new drive shaft, the list goes on. I've zeed the frame 5" and am now chopping the top 5". I am having problems tacking the roof. There is very little rust but when I try to tack it burns thru. I"ve got a miller 140 set on the lowest setting with a 75/25 mix and .024 wire. I"m thinking of spot welding some backing metal to the inside of the posts to take up some of the heat. Even though it"s not rat heres a pic of my last project 56
