Re: Show us your projects

if you don't have the tools already, I'd suggest getting them and some metal and make most all the floors, kickpanels and whatever else you feel comfortable making. Either that or overpriced patch panels. Some like outter cowl and door jam area, rockers I can see buying. but the rest makes more sense to fab to me. Plus more fun, but just more time consuming. I have a panel truck that has some similar features here. Fortunately and miraculously the areas that support the door are still there, makes it alot easier to keep things aligned. anyway bringing this back to life is a feat and not many people can and or will do it. I'm looking forward to you doing it.

Looks like you narrowed the control arms. Also looks like a Camaro clip.
how much did you take out of each side?

Re: Show us your projects

Nice! Start up a build thread on that thing. I have a pro street thing going on as well. Do you plan on caging it? What are you doing for seat belts?

Re: Show us your projects

Thanks! I just run a stock bench seat with lap belts. No plan for roll cage at this time. I have alot more tire than I have motor and dont race it. I run a small journal 327 motor, 350 turbo, and 9 inch with 4:11 detroit locker. Im new to the site and will start a build thread soon.

I checked out your build thread, you do some great work. The door gap info will come in handy as im working on the body. I plan to weld the body seam too, I never thought to do that.


Are you running the QA coils on the front, if so what pound springs did you use ? I plan to install a set.

Thx
