Got the brakes all mounted up, made a little cubbyhole, A. So that the master cylinders were on the outside of the firewall and B. I made it tall so that you could fit a bottle of brake fluid inside when its time to fill them. Made it out of diamond plate so it kinda matched the rest of the firewall...

No build thread just a 92 Chevy on Rockwells and a Big Block with 44's, nothing like the SWEET BURB !! It is funny how 44's are small these days and a built 477 still aint big enough!!!!

Indeed it has! Without starting a forum war, lets just say, it wouldn't be well received by the masses over there... The dudes on the mud forum would be dropping their jaws though! I just like any kind of build that required talent and ingenuity! Like yours!

Rude! I resent that... Although I am usually not the one telling people they are worthless tools that should swallow broken glass and gurgle bleach.

Now, if this was a conglomeration of ghetto-booty-fab and done on the cheap, then yes, I would not be a fan. Due to the fact that everything looks professional and actually planned out, and not ghetto-booty-fabbed, it gets an A+ in my book

Sweet build, love seeing it come together.

Not sure if this has been asked yet......but, how are you going to get it out of the garage?
