A Street Rod build is getting closer to the top of the list.
I'm trying to wrap my head around a good way to attach the body to the frame.
There are 100 ways to do it, just looking for some pictures & ideas on which way to go.

If you don't want to post them please PM me.

Thanks David
& good luck to everybody in 2 weeks

PM sent... I'd post pictures here, but it'd be a lot of pictures and a pain to post in a thread. Just way easier to text them.

I'm not sure how everyone else is doing it, but I'm happy to share how I've done it before and how I'm currently doing it with anyone that is interested. If so just send me a message with a number that I can text to, and I'll be happy to share ideas.

Thanks Brian... I've received a lot of help and advice from a lot of other racers, yourself included, over the last couple years. I'm more than happy to pay it forward where I can.

Besides, Street Rod and Street Rod Bracket are great classes, and I'm all about doing whatever I can to get more people involved.

And hey man, if you need any advice on how to go slow, just let me know. LOL!

I'm willing to help anyone who needs it. At the last event in BASX I scored a 2.9585 which was higher than practically all of you. If anyone needs help getting their scores up I'm willing to put in the time. I think a score of 2.96 or even 2.97 is reachable with some effort!

Crane, with your score of 2.9465 you've got your work cut out for you to get it up, but I think you can do it, though this PWD thing may not be for everybody.
