Re: 53 3100 - complete rebuild and upgrade . . . .

Nice work on the frame, and a Falcon in the background to boot!

That was the first project finished in the shop. It's quite hateful .

So on to the rear end. Using a speedway 9" with 31 spline axles and wilwood discs. To mock it up without a center section, I turned some spacers and lock rings on the lathe to hold the axles in the tubes. Almost ready for the 4 link . . .

And a few more of the IFS mocked up. If I didn't mention it before, it's a Scott's Hot Rods setup. Still have the front torsion sway bar to install, but there's some other issues I'm pondering on to get ciphered out first.

Thanks for looking -

Dan
