That's a great way to do it. Thanks! You've been more help than you know. I do appreciate it. I love the plumb bob thing. That's how I narrowed my Ford 9" housing.....and also why I did not do a how to......I know too many people will make fun of it, but it came out perfect.

So, do you have this beast running yet? What's the latest progress pictures? Would love to see the rest of the cage, too.

You got it - no problem! Plumb bobs work great. My dad's a semi-retired carpenter and taught me the basic old way of doing stuff like that.

When I bought my house a while back, my priorities shifted and life got in the way. Luckily I've been able to get back on the 66 Dart in the last year. I'm in the process of building a 727 TF for it now. Still gotta plumb the brakes, fuel lines and do the electrical, then it'll road worthy. I've got a 400 stocker in it now to work out the bugs before finishing the 512 for it. It'll still need interior and paint/body, but that stuff can wait. At least all of the metal work and fabrication's done. I had a build thread a long time ago, but it was too much effort keeping it updated. I'm sure you could understand that.
