its a 1948 chevy 4100, i have already fab'd the basic frame to accept the suspension from my back halved mkIII. now i need some help from my supramania friends. first up is i need a rear suspension crossmember from a mkIII supra so i can make a jig to fab a tubular version. so whoever has one let me know. the closer it is to madison, wi the better. i dont care if its rusty or dirty/greasy, just has to be straight and available. once the jig is made i will be able to supply everyone in the supra community with a high quality/stronger solution to the so so stock rear crossmember.

what do ya think it would cost to ship? that'd be a pretty big box, an someone like you that has one disassembled would know what it weighs.

done fab'ing the struts. the rear is done except for shocks. i still have to plasma cut out the side braces for the front top strut mount. ill post some pics as sonn as photobucket gets done bein' slow...

here ya go...

no frame layin'. this is not a lowrider/mini truck.

c'mon somebody has to have an old beat down supra sittin' behind the shed or in the way... or a rear cross member in the corner of their garage...

Wasn't 100% sure those were the expensive magnesium corvette option wheels they had for a bit or not ( i know there lighter than a motherfuck3r). Was told they crack and scratch easily in the past. I hope I am wrong. Its Farkin good looking no matter what.

yes they are magnesium and light as expletive!, an i got 'em for a song (insert free here)... theyre not that expensive on ebay anyway. yes they scratch, when ya hit 'em on stuff, other than that theyre pretty much normal wheels that are extremely light and affordable. a friend of mine's dad had a c5 convertible that they came on, when he brushed a curb the dealership gave him a full set of new ones with tires, so these were just sitting outside behind their garage for a couple years. i offered to store them, that was a few years ago, i actually tried to sell them for him, but no one was willing to give him more than 5-600 bucks. so now im usin' 'em.

off to buy a black '67 cadillac coupe deville in a minute hopefully...

truck updates later when i finsh the front upper strut mounts...
