Welcome from down the road. What are your plans for the Cutlass?

I've had the car for a cpl years and the plan has changed a good many times, but the current plan has been around the longest. Update the suspension to ridetech Complete coilover kit, Disc brakes on all 4 corners either C5/C6 or Wilwood. Wheels are undecided as of yet. Body is gettin a W25 hood, W35 spoiler, and the 70 sport mirrors. Interior modernized some. Engine will be a 511BBO fuel injected, 5spd Tremec, and 12bolt rear.

Sounds good. I have always wanted a w25 hood. It's on my list. Not familiar with the 511 BBO, but Google will fix that. What's your timeline? It looks like your body work is already done.

You might want to check out Project Sabre, in the "Project Updates" section. Its a 1971 Cutlass S that is getting the full pro touring treatment, withe the ridetech coil over suspension you mentioned. We're running C6 Z51 rotors and C5 calipers on drum brake hubs with KORE3 brackets.

Nice looking Cutlass! I like the mixture of the 71 & 72 tail lights in the one picture above ;P

thanks.......when I got the car the 71 taillights were in a box of parts, I prefer the 71 lense over the 72 unfortuantely the top 71 lense has those blue dots that I really only have unpleasent words for.
