Custom frame, channeled, custom suspension, v8 swap. Basically a Nash unibody coupe body on everything else homemade.

Build story

I bought the car when i was 14 for $100. In 1941 nash released the "600" series cars with unibody construction as a cheap economy car. Well fast foreward to now with the damp Washington weather, the whole car was rusted out. To solve this i built a subframe for the car and channeled the floor 6 inches to find decent sheetmetal. The frame is 2x5 box steel tubing, 4 inch drop axle on parallel leafs, and a 9 inch ford on ladder bars. Motor is a 468 chevy big block, eagle crank and rods, custom hydraulic cam, open chamber heads, and a weiand 6-71 blower. Should make around 600hp on 8 psi. Transmission is a muncie m-22 from autogear specialties.\r

Iv had 3 rearends, 2 frames, 14 motors, and 4 transmissions in this car over the last 10 years. Its loud, uncomfortable, and sketchy. Lots left to do, but its a fun car
