My new friend Keith Brednich owner of the Atlas oil and tool dragster from Pittsburgh Pa has got me started on my Woody restoration.

I've watched the Atlas restoration on YouTube. What an awesome looking car.

Bought a 8.75 rear end this week. This has no rust for a north east piece.

What's the plan, cackle car?  Looks like there's a bunch of work ahead of you.

Bought a cast timing chain cover and .250 6061 aluminum plate for mid eng mount.  Also set block between rails for fitting and checking for front mounts. Engine has to slide back about 5/8" to meet mid plate. This would bring back eng block mount to the middle of the Woody installed sadals . Nobody ever used it.
