    The Reenmachine DOHC '67 Shelby Clone Convertible Progress

    awesome car!! I have a dumb question about the rear end. What does it use for upper arms? I only saw the lowers and struts. are the halfshafts supposed to act like an arm? and also on that note with inboard brakes... what happens if you snap a half-shaft?

    Whole lotta pressure... what gives?

    66 sedan delivery?

    definately WAS a fastback. no way in H#$% thats original. I highly doubt that color was on cars in 66 and look at the glass in the back. looks more like the back window from a broncoII or something not a 60's design

    Strut suspension

    I'm gonna TRY to use a fox body front strut, and keep it front steer... Strut suspensions suck for handling compared to unequal length double wishbones, but this is my DD, and if it sucks too bad i can always add upper arms and re-engineer later...
