Getting to the point to build the exhaust and mock up the brakes so I can order the wheels.....

Cool car, Tim. It was sold right down the road from me and lived in Austin. I spoke with a good friend in Milwaukee today and it sounds like you've had plenty of time this winter to work on a project if your garage is heated.

You are correct.................9 days of snow.

The shop is heated, the fridge is cold!

And now building the exhaust. I wanted the tail pipes to go over the axle. It's going to be tight, but it will fit and work.....

I will be able to fit the tail pipes between the frame rails and the fuel tank to hide them the way I wanted to.

Why is the exhaust rigid welded to the frame? Me thinks that is going to crack the hanger welds after some driving
