Welcome aboard, Looks like the path of that project has been set. You'll likely need to check in on the PY race section for this type build.

                                                                                           We had a basket case '66 years ago that I contemplated doing a similar build with but never did.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Love the old school stuff.  Best of Luck with it.

                                                                                                                                                                            Cheers

Welcome to our community!

I take it the Dana is already installed? If so, bracing the frame for added strength is somewhat easy, but who’s going to do the welding?

The car has been raced with the Dana since 69'  full cage and interior sheet metal interior. was upgraded in 70's using a chevette a arm set up for a while and now going for new straight axle .

my phone has better pics of cage and interior but I can't transfer to media due to my flip star trek retro phone.

as far as welding the new project , I am open to suggestions that include payment with burgers and beers
