Re: '67 Chevy II Build - Betty.

Ok, got a bit of homework done. And no word from work. So, off to the garage I go!

In the meantime, this is a crude pictoral of my dillema.



If I put the frame rails on the inside, I gain more clearance for tires. If I put them over the subframe connectors, it's just more conventional. Hah. I'm not sure which will be stronger, as they'll both be bolted and welded I think. The inside rails, there is more area to weld.

Opinions?

I'll check back in a while, after I level up the car and check the square and everything. Then we'll go from there. haha

Thanks in advance guys.

-Sam.
