69 GTO Build

What company are you going with for the Watts link? I went with a Fays II setup and I had to wait a few months until I finally got it. It was to the point where I was going to just give up on it because the frmae was waiting to get painted and the Watts link was holding it up. Its a nice piece over all.

Since I have returned to the US I have only actually been home for 3 days. I got hurt in Afghanistan and it is holding everything up. I did spend some of that 3 days in the garage and I have A LOT of boxes and parts waiting to be installed.

Hi SShep,
Yeah the RS frame will have a Watts Link on it, I am trusting they will do a good job with the set up based on all their past work.
Have you had a chance to get any work done since you have been back?



Did some sketching tonight to get some thoughts down, I want a super low NASCAR style air dam, was thinking it would be cool if it was double hinged so it could move up if hitting a speed bump but would be limited in its travel down.
Open valance for oil cooler and driving lights.

Hey SShep,
Sorry to hear you got hurt, hope you are ok! So frustrating when you cant get out and work on stuff that is in your head constantly.

The frame is getting put together by the Roadster Shop, I think this might be one of the first 3 Link with Watts Link A body frames they have done (not sure on that), but I am trusting they will do a good job on it!

Hey Eric,
Hey it happens, its part of life I guess. I am still alive and in one piece so I am thankful for that. I am just frustrated that I am stuck in Louisiana and that even though I am back from deployment I cannot go home. Since I have been back in the states I have only been home for 3 days. Hopefully I will be back home soon after the holidays. I have never dealt with a aftermarket frame but from what I have read and seen they are super nice. I cannot afford an aftermarket frame and I dont think I need one. Besides I like to get crafty and build my stuff. The frame looks legit, I want to see how it moves things along when you get it. Have you been able to make any more progress?
