New from CT 1948 3100
Hi everyone,
I'd just like to say hi. I'm currently building a 48 3100. I drove it for a few years with a 59 235 and a dropped front axle. It was great around town but the lust for more power and driveability brings on some new changes. My current pile of parts that I'm working with are a Hiedts Mustang II front end, 78 camaro rear, and 1988 350/700R4. I just finished replacing the cowl panels and will be jumping into the frame and suspension work. Here are few pics of what I'm working with.

Welcome to the board from central California!
 Your truck looks to be a good project and I like your 34 coupe sitting next to it!

Thanks guys. I finished building the coupe a few years back. It's a steel body with glass fenders. It's chopped 3.5, mustang II front, ford 9" rear, 327 with a turbo 350.
