Salut! I just wanted to join the choirs singing praise of your project... this is completely unreal. I have no idea how I have missed this thread until now. Everything about this... speechless.

Curious - I saw mentioned you may do body kits. Would you ever think of selling plans/kits for the suspension and engine/tranny subframe/cage?

Your forum handle "PhoenixSHO" is likely prophetic (Biblical proverb: rise up from the ashes to fly again). I know nobody with the time, expertise and patience (nor finances) that you have shown towards carefully crafting/fabricating/assembling of what is destined to be one of the wildest Festys ever.
"DD" classification would be the ultimate understated compliment. Montreal to Ottawa (where I live) normally takes 2 hours. See how much you can cut down on that time on your inaugural run and breakfast/lunch and supper is entirely on me (even if you happen to have to slow down). I'll even go to bat for you with QPP and/or OPP!

Inspirational. Very clean, precise work. I like that you have true outside air to your intake. Brilliant handbrake as well. I suppose it'll be a custom job if you break that axle shaft, but that's no problem for you I see.

The hand brake , im scrapping it , theres no place anymore for the caliper , Im still trying to figure out a way to have another E-brake thats not connected with the regular brakes.

I can sense your dilemma here. I drove a 47 Dodge Power Wagon years ago that had a handbrake arrangement that surrounded and acted upon the rear driveshaft. This set up was directly located under the floor of the cab. I wonder if there is some way to concoct a mechanical friction device that presses on the rear discs?
I do suspect that a lazy, non-inventive guy like me would ultimately wind up being satisfied with drum brakes at the back. This harks back to a famous line from Enzo Ferrari when he fielded complaints about inadequate brakes on his products 1/2 century ago; " I make a my cars a to go, a not to stop"

heh , I basicly wanna do this in case im getting flagged by po-po to go do a mechanical inspection. We dont have e-tests here but if a po-po sense something is fishy , he can call inspection on you.
