hello everyone! Just signed up and became a member, now I will be relying on the infinite knowledge found here.
Here's what I'm doing. complete rust-oration, I mean restoration of a 69 bird. In the initial tear down, thought I would need front and rear floors a couple quarters and paint. Yeah right. I"m sending a few picts. all I'm left using is the skelton metal roof to bottom of pillars, all the rest form tamaraz, american muscle, year one and goodman.
I'm at the suspension pre-planning stage. I want a sick looking car (like Rodger's "RedZed") I'm not going to actually "Pro-Tour" this car, but I want the look. Thought I wanted air ride, but not sure now. I've spoken to Speed Tech and TCI. Love their influence and knowledge. Price is always a consideration in any build, I don't care who you are. Any way looking for a sweet stance like the redzed. I'm going to minitub with detroits 3" kit. Now it comes to who's suspension do I purchase knowing that I'm not going to professionally road race for times, I just want the sick ride quality of an aftermarket protouring like suspension. I've mentioned Speed Tech and TCI, but not limited to and want someone else's opinion. Technicality of the install is not a problem either. Also, I bought the car with a pontiac 455, Balanced and Blueprinted ( so he said ) And don't really want to custom fab headers. Motor mount fabbing no big deal. Any help??
first pict. is the great homecoming, Second pict is where it is now. I will be documenting the build here in the next few weeks.
