well i tried to post pictures but i see it didnt work, wow do i hate computers! Im building a 1962 tubbed pro street 502ci big block ford unibody longbox. I started with a 3/4 ton and installed a Moser M9 with ladder bars and a mustang 2 tubular control arm front end.

Mike: lets see if this works:)

Looks like youv'e been a busy lad since Rich & I were out there......how long ago was it now??

I believe it was mid january when you visited. I finally decided it was time to dedicate a little time to the chassis. Thanx for posting the pics, im not sure what i did wrong.

Looks cool, let see some more pictures.

Those meats look so right underneath that truck. Love it!

lots of work left but what else is there to do in a Alberta winter!

Sweet lookin' uni!! Love the stance and that longbed looks really good with all that rubber tucked underneath.

Cooter: Good on ya!! I would spend the winter finishing/painting the chassis, get the powertrain in, and DRIVE THE WHEELS OFF IT come spring. Leave the body for the following winter, it looks cool just the way it is!!

what is it about long and low unis? I really want one!

i plan on driving it for a year to work out the bugs and then paint it next winter. The motor is machined and ready to assemble and i plan on firing it up around Christmas. If i can come up with a little more money then the 4l80 overdrive will go in but 5000 is a chunk of change when i still need to buy many other parts!

Maybe go with a turbo400 to save money for other parts. $5000 seens like a lot? Love the pro-street and paint next yr. to work out the bugs. More pics please when you can,tHANKS Tony

Wow! Love the stance. Nailed it.

They do look good in the weeds.

And I can just picture this uni lined up vs. Melba Toast at the track.

as much as i enjoy short boxes, i think lowered long boxes look sleeker than shortboxes. Im glad you all like the stance, the front will drop a few more inches to give it some rake. Next step is to get the motor together and a tranny picked and build it.

Time for an update eh?
