While waiting for my block and heads to get back from the machine shop, I decided to remove the old iron duke. I also removed the roof section, which I'll probably get a lot of crap for not reinforcing, but I took tons of measurements and plan on wrapping a tube chassis around the tub anyway!!!
I met a man with a dollar, we exchanged dollars and we still had a dollar. I met a man with an idea, we exchanged ideas and now we both have two ideas!!!

Thanks Jayso,
I will keep you and your parts in mind as I continue my build. You're making really good progress on that roadster of yours, can't wait to see it finished!!!

Still trying to play ketchup here!!! Anyway the pictures below are of the motor being torn down. I didn't want to spend a lot on my donor engine beings I had every intention of rebuilding whatever I got.

Welcome to the board and good luck with your project. One thing is for sure is you definitely have your work cut out for you. I make all of the hinges you will need for your project and door handles as well.

Picked up a 3800 Supercharged from the local junk yard. Saved a couple bucks by pulling it myself!

Shortly after that I set my sites on getting as much unneeded parts off the car as possible!!!
