next cutting and chopping is going to be to get this awesome rack and pinion from Ron Sutton race technology and again no easy task!

here is that the whole center looks like to get the rack from Ron Sutton racing. it is made by sweet manufacturing. hoping to get motor and tranny mounted back in the chassis soon!

it has been super busy at work and designing more stuff for the chevelle and going to some metal shaping classes to learn new tricks! lets try to get this thread back up to date. motor and transmission mocked up new motor and transmission mounts were fabricated and machined. so much more to do yet!

Wow. It looks like we got some updates to do to get things caught up again! Wish I was a bit farther on the car but life has kinda got in the way however still chipping away on the car and the chassis. Hopefully getting back on it and also some new videos coming up too.

I wish I could! I have no photo hosting site right now and I thought I could copy the image links like every other fourm however this one does not give me that option. I posted some up to my album but I cannot figure out how to get them from there to the thread??? I am currently looking for a new phone and a photo hosting site that won’t screw me like photobucket did!

wow how time flys! thought i would be driving the car by now and apparently life takes more of my time than i thought. been hitting this thing hard fro months now and just getting the full floating 9" built from scratch and a fixture jig to hold it all together. my goal is to have it as a complete roller again soon!

some machining and assembly required!

yep that got complicated!
