    The frame rails will be 2 x 4 rectangle tubing. I don't know what kind of car it is... I'm building it all... haha. It'll be similar to a T-bucket only longer. I don't have a frame jig, but I have a 4' x 16' table I can lay it out on. I have a cnc router that I can use to route wooden jigs to get stuff in the right position. I guess I could go to a jag junk yard and take some measurements.

    Maybe I should mock up the whole frame in wood first.

    Every T with A-arm front end that I ever saw looked clunky. Be careful or you might build something that nobody else will buy when you tire of it.

    there is a local Track T with IFS and IRS that was an old circle track roadster that looks ok. The mustang II just don't look right. I plan on using Jag Ifs on My 32 Ford and 31 nash roadsters and duplicate the look of the Willett AMBR roadster
