Well done.
It is great that you have all these photos of your build. Not just for us to
look over and drool! Will be nice to show people when the time comes to
sell and move on.
Best of luck on this build
Jimmy

thanks Jimmy, stay tuned through the completion of the build.

Ernie, great build I like the layout. Would you happen to have any pictures of the clutch linkage installed? I am thinking that you are using a bell crank under the floor pan or under the dash dropping down to the clutch fork?

Thanks

Robert,
my clutch linkage is inside the car similar to what old 55-57 Chevys were. I had 1 shot of one of the ends I made to hold the cross shaft. I used bearings on each end. These are welded to the dash bar. The rod drops through the floor just past the accelerator pedal.

The other picture is all the pieces that comprise the linkage before welding.

Will you be able to find a midget in the Columbus area to crawl around the bars inside of the car to glue the carpet in ? Perhaps some one that lost their job with the B and B circus ? LOL........

Well, these photos are mostly of final assembly of a lot of underhood components. Had to make that tight fitting cranktrigger bracket on the drivers side.
