One trick I've learned about engine swaps...always take the old engine out first...it makes things go a whole lot quicker. OBEASTY's 1948 Dodge Custom OBEASTY's 1948 Dodge Custom

  If you'd like a little closer look at "OBEASTYs'" frame rails... might I suggest that you save these top four pictures in your Picture File, if you have Windows XP, then you should be able to zoom in on them and see a little better how the rails are joined together. The bottom three pictures here will enlarge if you right click on them and then "open them in a new window."

Just in case you're wondering..."OBEASTYs'" hood vents are from a Chrysler K Car Turbo Hood. They are really quite effective at createing a "chimney" for alot of the air that passes through the engine compartment.
