Hey White, I'm the one who's jealous, as I wish mine was a full resto!Thanks for the encouragement though. Feels good to have her rollin' under her own power after 3 years. Mechanicaly, it is pretty much how it will stay for a while until I after I get paint on it, and that seems to be a while out, hopefuly by summer.
Suspension in front is G/W upper and lower control arms, QA1 coilovers and Hotchkis 1-3/8 swaybar. Flaming river 14:1 box.
Rear is G/W stage 2 leafs and Koni adjustables. 9"w/trutrak 4:11 and 31 spline axles. Delrin bushings all around, solid body bushings and sub connectors. Still has a reasonable street ride surprisingly!
Wheels are A/R Rebels 17x9 w 6" b/sp
Nitto 555R2s275/40 all the way around. I'm gonna have to use wheel spacers to get em right. as 5" b/sp would be better.
Paint is dupont 2 stage custom mix (very dark metalic silver)
Lot's of work to do on the body b4 that happens though.
I'll be using the Formula hood with T/A fenders and flares.
Good luck with your project and be patient, It will happen if you keep at her. It has been 3 yrs. of nights and weekends while juggling work,family and other responsibilities in the mix. But there is light at the end of the tunnel, MarkMark
