Thanks man! It was pretty sweet to take it down the road. No driveline hitting the floor and being able to steer, it was great haha. And a little burner to finish the test drive is always cool. 😎. It’s almost cruising season, I need to get pushing on this thing. Been a slow few weeks around here.
The Vic body unbolts from the chassis. And I left the crown Vic firewall in place where it originally bolted down, welded my cab to the Vic firewall, made cab mounts for each corner and then I left the rear seat/ trunk section from Vic bolted to the chassis and welded my bed to that floor section. So everything can be unbolted and removed down to a bare chassis again if needed.
From my short drive, pot hole filled road, it was very smooth, cab felt real solid on the frame. When I take it for a longer drive in my neighborhood, I’ll have a better description. I was too stoked that it went down the block and back. The first time I tried, steering locked up and driveline hit the floor. Never got out of my driveway haha.
Coming along nice. Burnout was a must !! id honestly done the same .
Thanks, I appreciate it! My only regret, I didn’t rip those tires off longer 😂
Good job, dude!
6:20 👌🏻

It was spider free last week lol
Hahah yup! Only took a few days and they were every where. I went to test fit my tailgate…. Swarms of them all over the in the bed… 🔥🔥
So is the body welded to the chassis like a unibody like the crown vic was? Thanks man

How does it handle? Does it feel good?
