Been there done that! I’m curious as to what your purpose of your modifications are. I mean are you building a track car just a better handling road car?

I don’t believe it’s function is a strut rod it’s removal was one of the first things I did to my Volare. Removal of the front sway bar allows the suspension to drop farther and quicker. Drag cars usually only use a sway bar on the rear suspension this helps the vehicle leave level. While this...

Post a picture of them…

Your fluid level might be lower than it should be also, top it off in park with a motor running. But it probably needs a service fluid, filter, bands adjusted...

No need for the attitude just trying to help, you had a picture with a bracket and one without so I was just trying to help. Looks like you need the frame rail under it also. And yes I probably have the part you need.

If you have the bracket the floor is an easy repair, you can repair the floor and then weld the bracket on the new sheet metal.

Is that the rear seat fastener? It would help if you had an overall picture of the area you are looking for and a specific area that you want maybe marked with tape or marker.

The photo is upside down because the camera was or your phone when the photo was taken… lol

There’s one thing to consider when acquiring all the pieces and that is to use a V8 bell crank for a V8 and a /6 bell crank for a /6, don’t try to modify the wrong one. The ratios are different between the two.

Your idea is sound, what gauge material are you using?

Basically it’s just a headlight mounts the grill attached to them also. The bumper filler is below the grill and headlights. I believe the fenders are the same between the two cars but the hood is different and there are fender extensions.
