hmmmm. back to the drawing board.... Got the body off the frame and did some rough measuing....even a 32" bar is gonna place the crossmember a ladder bar would attach to right under the middle of the seat!!!! Guess it's gonna have to be a 4 bar with poly's so I can play with the kids uptown, too..... Going to be a challenge with the 95" wheelbase getting all the components put where they belong or it's gonna be a whole bunch of big wheelies!!!!!!!! Oh well, nothing like a little excitiement once in awhile!!!! Might as well put a straight axle under the front and have some real fun???????
Other interesting measurements place the top of the roof at 54" and the ride height at 5". Kinda like a go-kart with a cage.....
Hey Scooter, better get to tuninin', we might have to have that 302 shootout afterall!!!!!!

I went through this a couple years ago with my 92 inch wheelbase anglia. Ladders were too long for me too, and I was advised to go 4 link by a local rod builder. Right or wrong I dont know I have not driver the car yet, but they are there.
Live everyday like it were your last, someday it will be.
