Nightbird, welcome aboard. You will find lots of great people here with valuable information that they are always willing to share. Don't hesitate to ask for help.

I'm also building my first "total car", very similar to yours. It's a '32 3w coupe on a TCI chassis with an LS1/4L60E combo, I'll be using an N&N body. I'm looking forward to seeing your project move along and as others have said, we love pics!!!

Mike
