Went ahead and cleaned up my rear while it was out...

I need to get some good shots of the suspension itself.

I, for one, am very excited so far. It's got a few bugs left to work out, but overall, it was pretty much a plug-and-play deal once I got all of the parts worked out.

Hah, the rear jokes, they would not stop..."hey man, you would not believe the crap i found stuck to my rear when it dropped out from underneath my body. I'm talkin 30 years of crap that had never been wiped off. I finally had to use a wire brush in a drill to get all the crap off of my rear end!! P.s. it's not every day you see a black rear end under a white body!"

Car looks good. I have the same color interior in my '78 Camaro. How did you get the color to match? I looked on their web-site and saw a color that looked close, but it was only available in velour? Yours look like leather or vinyl?

seats are rallys by procar, not out of anything production.

Boyd, call procar directly. They stock them in red vinyl, just don't advertise it for some reason. It'll take them a while to get a set to you, though. No additional charge.
