Pic shows how much lower I made the rear.
After looking over this rolling chassis………I decided to re-do 90% of what had been done……..The whole front axle and related items were garbage and tossed…..the rearhousing brackets were removed and re-done along w/ how it was mounted all re-done, new Strange Engineering coil-over shocks and race axles replaced the junk it rode on prior. Picked up a stronger Mopar 8-3/4” thirdmember w/ new posi and 4.56 gear………..Removed the entire floors that someone had installed and cut out the entire firewall and dash that was newly painted…………removed the bad master cylinder brake setup and all the steering needs to be re-done not up to par as is………..Some thought this was a really nice car before………but the only thing that will be original is the rear frame, body and interior…………….when I am finished…………my definition of nice is different……
My site was lost for awhile….finally all fixed…time to catch up….
