Default Re: Hello Everyone!

Fordman you are right on. T bodies end up on later or tubular chassis all the time. T chassis are flimsy at best and won't take the stresses of modern engines without some serious reinforcing. Talk to hot rod shops for their advice. Leave the T for a later restoration or just get it running and enjoy it. There are tons of abandoned hot rod projects that may fit your needs (i.e. e-bay, HAMB).
Chopping and channeling a good T body is a crying shame. Go with glass or a basket case body. Just an opinion, but welcome. And good luck!
