Hollow Head, I fully understand your frustration. Although I can pick up the phone and have UPS back in the driveway with a truck load of parts in a day or two, it's just not in the budget. I have to buy or make parts as the funds are available and right now I am just working on stuff with parts that I have gathered over the years. I will get there, but it just takes time and money.

I finally got a message from Texas and our body is ready and waiting for a shipping to Finland. Five weeks or so to have it here.... Can't hardly wait . Well, chute and chute release handle are also on their way up here and more little pits and pieces. Lot's of time until July 10th... and www.fordnationals.net

Today we got our radiator from Griffin radiators . Some brackets and final positioning and that's it! Hopefully next week comes with more progress when we get our rearend from welder and also other small parts will land to Finland. But, still waiting for the fiberglass body...

And today we got our rear axle housing from welder. This should be strong enough .

No, we're not going to use that carrier. Strange alu case is on the way with axles etc...

Wow! that is a pricey looking unit.  Should hold up!  Aluminum carrier from Stange, you guys aren't cutting any corners there.  Very nice indeed.

  

God Bless.

Slow progress without body....

Yes, the scoop will be on top of the intercooler, which fills the area between front tyres.

Hope we will ge the body soon or then we have to change our schedule .

What's up with the disc brakes?  Don't you know drums are where it's at!

Good job, keep going, the payoff is excellent!
