Walt, that pic you posted looks like the S&W race front end. I just got a new catalog yesterday and the A-arm package with Pinto rack looks real nice and similar to Avenger572's setup.

Thanks Paul for the pictures.I might consider going that direction also.have a question? on your firewall underneath your master cylinder I noticed that it is smooth there. did you redo any of that. Thanks

Thanks Charlie for the heads up on the new s&w catalog ...because that is who I usually do business with and did not receive mine yet.

I removed all of the stock firewall up the bottom of the wiper cowal. It was much easier to make the firewall and transmission tunnel at the same time. This is my opinion only..

ps..I have a photo album of when I built the car, but have to find it. When I do, I'll post some more pictures.

Nice cars guys.

I remember reading about the MP kit during the early 1990's for SBM conversion.

I believe Herb McCandles's son used this setup in his Lebaron??

Mine was a 4-banger too, it broke the timeing belt and the valves hit the pistons
I think they make tough looking hot rods

Yea Is the trans any good? Cant tell from the motor but it looks like you made a wise choice on the rebuild/racecar Cant wait to see it run. Greg

ok guys here are the pictures,let me know if you have any questions.all these parts were made by Ed Quay .I'm going to talk to fab shop tomorrow and see if he can make these pieces .but hope this helps you.if you aren't running a series the easiest thing to do is do a arm setup from one of the chassis shops that sell them,My car has to have a stock firewall and run the type suspenion it came from the factory with.I have two things weighing right now do I sell her rolling and build a new car the way it needs to be or cut this one and put the 25-2 chassis in it.I love the car ,but hate to tear apart now ,but something got to give.
