[tm327]

Hi Everyone, just wanted to introduce my new C3 project. Car will have full Ridetech suspension featuring their Rear control arms, Triple Adjustable shocks, Strongarm upper and lower control arms, drop spindles and the yet to be released Tru-Turn steering system. Forgeline Rims, Baer Brakes, Vintage Air, Centerforce Clutch, Lingenfelter, Bowler Performance, Holley and many more parts from the best aftermarket companies in Pro Touring. I'll post the rendering pics and some of the Ridetech parts. Thanks for looking I will update as time and progress allows.

I'll be watching this for my next build. House is under construction, so it won't be too long.

Thanks for the kind comments. Flynavy this system has just become available from Ridetech. Give the guys there a call and I know they'll be more than happy to give you low down on it. I'll be posting some pics of the rear install sometime this week. The front went on without much fanfare there was a little trimming needed on the inner fender liner to clear the upper strong arm, not much material was taken out maybe 1/4 to 1/2 inch. The kit comes with Ridetech's tried and true spindles same pieces they use for the Camaro's, so you need to change the front hubs to a Camaro or Chevelle design. The rear control arms accept the factory hub and bearings, this car was a rear disc car which I will be upgrading to a Baer kit which should retain the factory style parking brake but I don't need the factory dust shield. I trimed this down and left the part that bolts at hub because this where the retaining pins for the e-brake go through. Again I will post some pics of of them this week.
