    I'm sure it had a small block engine with 40's on it at some stage

    Is there not a mod needed for the alternator with this setup ?

    yes you need to lower the alternator but dont have to cut the chassis away like you do with a redtop..

    looks like another nice project stevie!

    sure you will make it look good whatever you do..

    Check for signs of seam splitting and paint cracking up on the chassis legs towards the bulk head. It does look very very bent. Can you get a few pics of the cross member on for us? Its hard to say if its fooked or not from these pictures
    I spent 90% of my money on Drink and Women, the rest I just wasted.

    Looks like the passenger side chassis leg has been bent down. Get a pic from head on from about a foot from the ground. Im sure if could be pulled out on a jig. Whats the line like around the back of the passenger front arch and around the door shut compared to the drivers?
