one piece fiberglass front ends
Hey 451 -
I had a lift off front end on my old '69 340 Swinger that I built years ago to run NHRA Super Street. It also had a separate lift off hood. I could either remove just the hood or the entire front end.
Loved it for working on the car. Remove the front end and there's a ready made chair (the front tire) to sit on and work.
The only drawback was it was a 2-person job to remove the complete front end. It mounted on two horizontal pins extending from the front frame stubs and was secured by two dzus fasteners on the back of each front fender by the doors.
I also had both a front engine plate and a mid-plate between the engine and transmission. I could pull either the engine or transmission separately or pull them both as a unit.
Still wish I hadn't gotten stupid and sold that car. I'd love to have it to run on the street now.
