While the embers are still warm, I'll fan them to a flame. Did I miss
something or did we blow right passed the welded front clip say from a 78
Firebird or Camaro. In all the discussion of weld vs. bolt, it seems that if
a weld were to crack (with the clip) there's a chance you could see the
whole front of your truck fall off??? The reason I bring it up is we used
Heidt's MII on the 55. I was leaning to an old Camaro donor car to get the
front clip, rear end (3.08 gear) and the tilt wheel. Do I cut the frame or
not?
