Got the rear suspension and rear brakes finished up today.....Having way too much fun now!!!....I was going to start on the front suspension but after reading the Instructions I realized I needed to bring some clamps home from the shop to do it correctly.......Early day today.......Time for a Nap!!

This convert is gonna surprise a lot of people. I remember when I first saw the '66 Chevelle. The longer you looked, the more you smiled. Nothing "In-Your-Face", but a TON of subtle things that made it a fantastic, reliable, FUN-TO-DRIVE car!

Impressive design &amp; execution Ken! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img]

Started the Front Suspension today.....Got the front sway mounted and installed....and some mod's for the strut rods....mocked everything up with the coilover in place....I noticed a little clearance issue between the Coilover and the upper frame spring pocket.....Humm!!.......Get the Instructions out.....sure enough.....they said to check and modify if required.....So.........Time for a Nap......I'll do it tomorrow....



Ridetech Spherical Strut Rod Bearing.....Replaces the stock rubber bushings
