jeff/21:
the idea is to have fun! a friend had a 64/65? square body ran M/SA 289 2 BRL. C4  it was wheels up on launch ran not bad fun to watch
enjoy!

opa1:
Front axle showed up today! I'm still working on the front strut supports. Hope to have a roller again this week.   

opa1:
Front supports are in. Also welded the plates on the bottom of the frame rail for the axle shackle mounts. Got it all square and solid again. Hope to mount axle this Friday.

opa1:
More progress. Shackles are tacked in place. Going to set caster on the axle and weld it all up. Might roll by this weekend. :)

THE FRENCHTOWN FLYER:
How much caster are you dialing in? I ask because I originally put 11 degrees in my Willys and had shimmy problems. It worked better when I used 7 degrees. Also, I added a steering damper (from a Fiero) for insurance.
