Also, I know for a fact that you can get bags that will support the 460 and still keep ride quality, plus it would look WAY cool. I've done a few mix and match airbag set-ups and the people in the know (SEMA types) are really helpful when tackling this sort of build.

I tried to do the IMG links from the site and they showed up just as the direct links, but not underlined and going nowhere if you know what I mean. I'll try again soon with some pics of my small modest shop and see what comes of it. Thanks for the advice, I'm sure it's really just a fat finger problem.

thanks Goat, if i ever get to the point i can start on this thing, ill post pics.. right now its just writing on paper what i will do .. hopefully not a pipedream. ive built so many rides for other people, maybe someday i can build mine.. haha...
on the bags, yeah, im sure a good #2600 bag would hold it fine or even #2800's , but problem is , im gonna build arms similar to Mustang II , i have a Heidtis Mustang II front clip that im gonna do the mock up off of.. with that type of arms, i worry that only size bag i will be able to put under it will be the #2500 types.. im not sure yet... as i get closer to the build ill fig it out..
ive done my share of air bagging rides for years, and figure it out, so whats 1 more to the list .. haha..

oh , on the picture thing at Photobucket...
heres a picture what im talking about...
copy the code where the red circle i made ..

then when your making a post , just copy it to the screen .. like this ..

hope that helps ya out some...

No floor pans not a big deal (no floor). But the front end looks like a lot of work. It will not be stock when you are done.

Do you use any of the rusted parts? What do you treat it with if you do?

Amazing the dash is not that bad.
haha, no Nova , i didnt get to go see it this weekend.. maybeeee next weekend.. im gonna take the camera and get a few snap shots... ..
all the glass in the ford is flat... which is great, cause it shouldnt cost arm and a leg to get new cut glass for it.. i hope.. stock glass is little shot.. might see if i can sell it though..

yeah, ill be making a new floor.... blue bucket will have to go!! haha

eventhough it looks like a rust bucket... the outside panels are not bad.. looks bad, but mostly surface rust, due to the thicker and harder metal then what they use today..
it depends on the panel what i do with the rust..
this car, if i get a chance to work on it... ill prob just clean the areas im gonna be working on with a wire brush on a drill / grinder, and use some surface rust converter with steel wool to really clean it... just on the areas ill be working on , like the sections for the chop roof and etc... after i get few of the major things done, ill prob haul it off to get it chemical / acid dipped, which will clean the hole car inside and out... at least thats the game plan...


heres a center console im working on for a 34 ford.... notice the indented bodyline in the middle that continuous off the dash...
everything was tig welded and planish using 20gauge cr sheetmetal
