That's a beaut, George. But a Mustang II??? :yuck:
Mustang II rack and pinion steering gears are popular with street rodders. Cheap and easy to find.Quote:

Hey, I'm not saying I think it's a good idea or that I'd use one myself, just that they're popular. Most street rods are about the drive train and the body; the suspension is an afterthought.Quote:

Very nice George. Silky looking.
If I had a street rod it'd be a 67,8,or 9 Camaro w a 454.
Mack just sold his Camaro not too long ago, And it had a big block in it.Quote:
