welcome from me too.
the 40 is looking great and thanks for the photo's--have i mentioned i love photo's
can i suggest you start a build thread in the hotrod build log section with pictures and that way it keeps all your stuff together
and also provides a form of motivation and history of the build.
plus i like watching projects progress - no matter how long they take
anyway,thanks for taking the time to show us.
.
Very nice 59 Belair and that's a great start on the 40!
Thanks for the kind words and welcome's
I'll try to get that build log thing figured out soon as I can get the time
Dang bathroom remodel is taking way to long… LOL
But like any project.. "work hard and it goes easy"
Got the Watts link rotator fabricated, the torque tube triangulated ( will be pulling that out and drill 2" lightening holes down the full length of both sides), Watts frame and mounting arms built.

Wow! Looks stout!!
Lol. Yes. I over engineered the torque arm. Hence the need for lightening holes.Quote:

Great work! Tubing benders are one of those things people don't think they need, then when they get one the wonder how the heck they ever got along without one!!!!
I'm already there Dave. :LOL::LOL::LOL:
I find myself trying to find future products which involve bending tubing. Now I can't sleep. :LOL::LOL:
