Im hoping to have it terrorizing the streets of t/quote] Nice car. I actually owned this car for a while. I bought it from a guy near Huntington LI and sold it to a guy in Brooklyn. I never did much with it. I was working on a 66 Barracuda at the time. The only thing I did to it was weld in that angle iron and box tubes to the engine bay. That is how I recognized the car. The engine bay was rough cut so I figured it would clean it up a little. The car was hacked. I remember the cage was way too short. What are you going to do for trunk hinges? I was going to put the hinges in the back and have the trunk open reversed. I really like what you are doing to the car. My Barracuda had fenderwell headers and a 3 point bolt in cage for the old school look. I never attempted a straight axle conversion but it looks like you are doing an excellent job.
