I also have a 1935 Ford Suicide Door Sedan project. (No Pics on computer) It has a 350 with 202 heads mated to a 700r4. Mustang 2 front suspension and 9" rear end. Chassis is done, bodywork in progress.

Aside from the physical projects I run some car related pages with varying success.

Cool. Nice collection also. Had my eye on a 89 suburban over the summer. Wife put her foot down and said she didn't want that monster in her driveway.
