Re: SkinnyG's '61 Apache

I do realize there will be issues with getting the correct camber. It's sitting at +1° right now. I do not realize others have done this.

I do, however, have a sawzall and a welder and I'm not afraid to use them.

What I AM especially excited about, is that the front track appears to be 66" wheel-mount-to-wheel-mount, which is a very nice fit to my 65" Ford 9" axle I want to run. I'll be using a more modern offset 18" wheel with more back spacing. I think.
