I finally got a chance to get some work done on it. I got all the stock toyota frontend cut off and got the mustang II frontend installed and all boxed in and plated. man it feels great to be working on it again Ron... off with the old toyota stuff: here is the mustang II frontend in place and some of the plates installed: well here is what it looks like now after 2 days of cutting,welding and grinding

Gives me a better look at what kinda work an MII install is like. This truck has a 4" chopped top and it will have a 41 willys nose on it, I have a 493(440)stroker kit and a set of edelbrock heads and a race trans to go into it as well as a 4.10 Dana with ladder bars. I want to run around 10.0 at 135mph check out this thread below to see how this build has gone so far. Ron... https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...e=0#Post3092168 .

Gives me a better look at what kinda work an MII install is like. As I recall and of course Ron correct me if I am wrong but that is a stock MII clip. So if you are looking at picking up an aftermarket MII cross member it may look or fit a little differently depending on the application. Ron great work as always you are an inspiration for me to get moving on projects once the rain stops.

Ron great work as always you are an inspiration for me to get moving on projects once the rain stops. your right, putting in a stock mustang cradle in is a little different than putting in an aftermarket one, like a fatman unit. the stock mustang frontend has the top hat(where the upper arms attach) and the lower crossmember are all one piece. where an aftermarket one is separate. with an after market one you mount the new lower crossmember to the bottom of the frame and then you put on the 2 upper(top hats) pieces and weld it all up. with a stock mustang crossmember you have to trim the frame till the mustang unit clears everything and then you have to measure from side to side and top to bottom and front to back and when your sure its where it needs to be you weld it up and I make plates to box it all in and make it strong Ron...

Quote: What was the reason for ditching the toyota front end? it was an older style frontend with single thin rotors and the torsion bars were in the way for the engine and trans, the plan all along was to go with the mustang II style frontend. I have Tube "A" arms for it as well as big brakes and a new manual rack and pinion setup

Thanks Pat well I am now at the point of no return I fitted and "CUT" the willys hood, and found out that it will have to be widened down the middle also so I started cutting and fitting and now it is Klecoed in place and it looks like it goes from nothing in the front to about 2 1/2" at the rear. Oh boy glass and resin work ahead well thats streetrodding you have to just work through the problems you come across Ron...

I thought about leaving them off(to let more air out) but when you look at it from the front it looked a little weird and you could see to much of the firewall area, but the sides had to come off as the body line is opposite to the dodge. dodge goes out heading down and the willys goes in heading down. so it looks like I will glass that area so that the body lines and body below blend in the way they should. I knew that the hood was going to be the biggest challenge making this nose and body work together. I thought about using a dodge hood and nose cone and make it meet the willys center section but I felt that the hood would be pretty heavy in steel so I cut up the willys glass hood yeah I know crazy....

[well, as good as can be expected for a brand X..........

Thanks Mark and Jon, It feels good to be working on it again, I got some more done today after I went out and got some more fiberglass mat (I have a case of it here someplace, but do you think I could find it?) I made some small pieces of metal that were shaped like the body and Klecoed them to put the side panels out instead of in and I had to put a piece of metal behind the side panels near the front to keep it in place and then went under the hood and stared mat and resin, its coming out pretty good so far .

No the body line just fades away as it goes forward just like the willys did. but that would have been a cool idea. when I cut the side panel out I thought about leaving it off(less work and to let air out) It looked good from the side but when you stood in front of the truck it looked odd to me, so I decided to put them back on.

And you've practically built a hood from scratch, in what, 3 weeks? I agree, your work is VERY inspiring. I like your brothers car also. Where were you in 1985? Around here. I keep forgetting what years you lived up this way. When you decide to quit, THAT is the moment when you would've succeeded..

Thanks guys Its really working out pretty good. my $50.00 swapmeet headers fit great, you can get at the plugs easy and the headers can be removed real easy, I fit the radiator and that fits perfect too I made the template for the engine plate larger to so It will hook to the front roll bars at the top.

I got the dr rear fender shortened now. these fenders are off a 50 dodge PU and they have like a 33" opening and I felt it was to large so I cut 2" out of the middle to shrink it a little and welded it back together. Ron... here is the stock fender: and now 2" smaller:

I made a cardboard hood scoop to get a pattern for the one I want to make for it. My friend Curt milled out the front engine plate and I fitted it to the engine. it fits great . here are a few pics.

I am assuming that you will have long wheel studs. They can make it tuff sometimes. I've seen where guys have had to either deflate the tire to get it off, or remove the lower coil over bolt and drop the rear suspension to be able to remove the tires. Keep coming with the pics!

I still need to finish up the back of the frame: 8 3/4 and roadster PU frame(upside down) Last edited by Mopar Ron; 05/28/10 03:21 PM.

I cut that 3" off and I also put a bow in the new firewall of about 2" to clear the engine. I wanted the engine set back as far as I could without getting to intrusive into the cab. I left the 1" lip that the hood sets on the cab. the engine is still in the same place as it was in the earlier pictures

Oh and I picked up this scoop for $25.00

Eric, the column is 1 1/2" it is what I had around here and the bearings were from some other columns I had, as far as the quick release hex goes, that is what the off road shop here had and so far it seams to work OK, I never had a splined one. mark, I will use white sealer as a base for the orange but I have shot it over buff polyprime and it looked OK as well.

Quote: Quote: Eric, the column is 1 1/2" it is what I had around here and the bearings were from some other columns I had, as far as the quick release hex goes, that is what the off road shop here had and so far it seams to work OK, I never had a splined one. mark, I will use white sealer as a base for the orange but I have shot it over buff polyprime and it looked OK as well. Ron, That color will look great on your truck! Thanks Mark I think so too. got a little more done now got the gauges mounted and the shifter is all working now. i trimmed and fitted the grill material(58 ford) and resined in some studs to mount it so that is now off the list. and I have been working on a rear pan, I will get some pictures later tonight...

You say you are working on another PU to sell?? Thanks John I haven't got much done on this truck lately but I have started back on the 46 COE pick up project, that is the one on a 93 Dakota chassis complete with 5.2 efi engine and 518 trans, I need to get a wiring harness for it, I have been making a removable floor for it to get access to the engine and I made a cover for the EFI, injectors and air cleaner. this is the cover made from left over dakota parts hope to get back on to the race truck as soon as I get the COE done.
