So after 30+ years of waiting, dreaming and wishing, Project 37 Ford has finally started! My father and I spent part of the weekend starting to prep the frame for jigging and restoration. As you can see in the pic's below. The frame needs quite a bit of work. There is some severe pitting on both rails as well as one section that is completely rusted out. We just don't have the budget to purchase one of those fancy TCI frames (very nice, but very expensive). So we'll work with what we have. Our plan is to jig the frame and then remove the x-member and cross members for boxing and cleaning. At this point we will also replace any rusted/pitted metal.
We're still looking for a Mustang II cross member (new or used). So if any of you guys out there know of a good source, please let us know. Like most of you, we're working on a small budget. So cheaper pricing is a must.
Does anyone know which donor Fords have a Mustang II front ends?
