Looks like its gonna be a challenge to figure out. We all know, you'll get it right. :dancing:

Wow! I never realized this had so many bad issues! Geez, with thee car available for pics, measurements and other analyses, there's simply no excuse whatsoever for getting it so incredibly wrong! Still, after seeing what you did with the truck, I have faith that you'll turn this into another Red-banner, award-winning build!

I really appreciate the encouragement fellas. I may have to build something along side of it with a lot less customizing so I can at least make progress on something because I feel another 10 month + build coming out of this one here. lol

Very cool my friend!
We have a family member who has three 392 hemi engines.

He has a beautiful, black 1929 Ford panel delivery with a 1200 HP blown 460 Ford engine. It's a beast.

Good stuff. 392 Hemi's are a rare bird.Thanks for the good word PMD! Will hopefully start rolling forward with progress on this one soon. Got just a few things left to do with my F-100 and I'll be off to the races with this one.

Has this one stalled out or have you made any progress lately?
So many models.... so little time.
