Marty, Can I borrow it next? Two cuda projects on opposite sides of the country using the same wheel tool would be cool... and kinda funny..:unibrow: :rofl: Heck of a job, Ned. At ride height, what is the distance between wheel lip center and the ground/floor will be for you? Awesome!:hail: |

Amazing Car!!
Well after looking at every page on this post, I am speechless. the body work is artwork on your car.
it is to bad you had to have someone almost destroy your dream of the car you wanted. I for one had a similar exp, but not as bad. Had my car with absolutly no rust, sit a bady shop for a year. And the only thing they did was the passenger side 1/4, door, and part of the fender. It took me a little over 2 years to find a shop that has a rep for their work. I to envision what I want my car to look like, and want to stay with it. Good luck. |
Well I got a chance to wheel her out into the sun this weekend.....pull the boxes and parts out and take some pix...... the car sits awesome when fully dropped.
These pix are with the stock wheels, fully aired out, so it will sit about an inch higher in the back but the front will be about the same. So it will have a little rake to it.... The air shocks have no valves, so she tends to lean alittle when the air moves around http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3699.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3717.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3705.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3708.jpg http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/e...I/IMG_3707.jpg |
Ground clearence when its fully aired out.... with it at ride height I have about 4.5 inches at the front crossmember

I'm gonna ad some frame braces to stiffen the frame up alittle...... Wilwood is sending me some of their new spindles to see if they will work with the Alterkations... if they do, then I can get their biggest and baddest brakes....if not, then I'll do the "2nd biggest and baddest brakes" they have :) Now I have to get off the damn computer and get my ass out in the garage before it gets too hot.... |
Love the wheels Ned!!
BTW -- to properly use a tape measure to measure ground clearance -- it has to be vertical... :lol: |
PS --
Tell the "little lady" that SHE now gets the single car garage -- and "THE" car gets to take it's half out of the middle -- of the double door side!! It won't be that long before you get to come home again.... |
Very nice NED!!
She's gotta be one mean looking mutha!!!:cheers: |
