Re: 47 chevy panel



5) I put the engine so I could mock up the engine mounts and the tranny mount. I was going to use a piece of round tube but I decided to go with 2x3 I’ll notch it later to clear the exhaust.









I set the ride height 6” I think it would be perfect the running boards will get the panel a lower look.

Re: 47 chevy panel

6) As I said before the ride height is 6”. I know there are tons of drop spindles out there. I’m using Bell Tech Drop Spindles this way if the owner wants to raise the right height it’s as simple as putting on a stock set of spindles.







I always build something like this at ride height for one very simple reason there will be no surprises.
