Front subframe

Still don’t have the correct outer steering arms, and no pitman arm, but this is a glimpse of where things are going.

Nothing all that exciting really.  Can’t seam weld the subframe, as lots of people do.  No Guldstrand mod (where the upper control arm mount points are re-drilled lower),  steering is all stock stuff.  Steering box is a rebuilt original 800 series, not the smaller and lighter 670 series most guys run.  It’s heavy!  Power steering adds almost 30 pounds to the car, all on the nose where it’s least desired…but I think with the big caster values I have planned, it’ll be necessary.  The color looks almost white in these pics, though it’s actually a very light gray, custom blended.  Perfect!
