That's got to be a good feeling having it under it's own power again. Good thing Jill was laughing while you were spinning donuts in the grass. Did she pimp smack :smiley_smack: you back under the car to clean the grass and mud off of her beautiful new frame?

It's a great feeling Ryan! I did clean the grass off before I got :smiley_smack:

We're not car show people, but Paragon Corvette asked us to bring it to their fall show today, so we're headed there later today with it. We'll see how the "numbers matching" guys like it :mock:

Made it out with the SO66 today. Had fun watching people walk up to it and see there facial expressions, like what the...


Met with Dave, in orange shirt, the guy that built it in 75/76. It was fun talking with him about the car. He didn't know we were coming and said how happy he was seeing it again. Brought back lots of memories for him.

Why thanks Tom! LS Fest was pretty fun. Big cars, yes, but compared to cars of today...not so big. My Chevelle weighs 3320.
It's way lighter than it looks but you and Tom were doing an fine job on the track there. It was my first event and attempt at autox so I got some practice to do to catch up with you guys. I got to ride in Billy's nova, loved it!

Awesome car! I love it. What did you have to do to the control arms to fit the ride tech coil overs? Do you have any pictures?

Well, it wasn't simple, but what I ended up doing was getting a couple of pieces of 5" diameter, 1/8" wall dom and putting a new lower mount in. To get the ride height and due to adding extended upper stud mounts, the pocket was pushed down 2.75". Here are the only pics I took.

They may be filled with secret sauce...:D

Hehe, that was backyard in-jun-earing right there. Hard to believe, but there were no CAD files generated for this modification...lol

Thanks Lance!
