Chevy Coupe Frame Fabrication and Painting, Suspension

Here I added some crossmember bracing, sometimes called x-members because of their shape. 

I then added some Ford Mustang springs and Speedway Motors spring mounts. 

Here the frame is upside down for painting.  You can see the 4 link mounts that I welded up.


Tara bought me the headers for Christmas.

I just like these two black and white photos.



These last four are out of order but, they show the body channeled over the frame 6 inches and what it looked like before the channel job.

You can see why I said earlier I should have taken more out of the frame length, it looks funny.
