Topic: new build maybe ?

[just old]

this is a very easy question I am thinking about building a roadster , and on the frame use 4 in channel by 1/4 of and inch . you may say why , because I have a lot of it and it is free . is there any reason not to use it opposed to tubing . the other thing I liked it will let me hide everything in the frame .
it will have a 302 ford with auto trans , I can box in some areas to make it stronger

Well, if it is free, will you make me one too??

What thickness?  1/4" legs aren't too ridged, but if you cross brace it well, it could be more than strong enough.

well I have started to build again , I have decided to go with the channel iron not tubing

well I have started using SR9009 to build again , I have decided to go with the channel iron not tubing

Good luck with the project! Why the channel iron over tubing this time btw?
