FED on Racingjunk!

<< < (2/2)

Blind Mule:
Naw I saw that just missed the rear susp. I just skimmed over the ad I was looking at the body any way it's a cool hot rod that I would own! ;)

Dolmetsch:
Feds (and altereds ) are not hard to build. Put a rule book in your welder and error on the side of safety. A mild steel car does not actually cost a lot . Mostly it costs time. I have another FED chassis almost finished. Keeps me out of the house during the day. Of course it depends on the build too. A car for fun and enjoyment may be different then a world beater deal. We figure on about $500 to $600 in materials including front axles build Doesnt seem to matter if it is an altered (built a Hemi Jeep Altered a couple of years ago)  or a FED. cost is about the same. Some would not have a mild steel car. Sorry for your loss. :) I am more comfy welding mild steel and it is readily available here so for a hobby  fun car tis fine and will last longer than most of us will.
