You've got a sweet starting point
 
I know you want to do the 4 link in back to showcase your fabricating skills. If you want a more bolt on route I run caltracs and custome buitl leafs in my Torino and am pretty happy with it's performance at this part. I'm looking at running a FAYS II watts link (he doesn't make one yet for my car but I've spoken to him about it). I'm running the RRS kit in front and think that coilover ste up is pretty slick for a street car although many think the double wishboone coilover of TCP and Global west have more potential due to the camber curve vs the Mac Strut in the RRS. The Porsche and BMW guys seem to have proven in a street car Mac Strus can do a lot and so far I agree. Welcome.

Welcome to the board - this is a great site.

Looks like it's going to be a fun project.

I also had a color bone fracture similar to yours. I broke mine in 9pcs and dislocated the shoulder. Puting my shoulder back in was a bitch. The finally put my color bone back together 4 or 5 months later in the operating room after i almost bleed out one night. One of the fragment poked a hole in my sub-clavin artery.

And also thank for defending a representing out country in the service.

What branch were you in ?

Nice car. From some pics I've seen there is a lot of potential in those cars. My dad has a 69 428scj not restomoded but still gets a lot of looks. Good luck and thanks for the service.

I'd love to see some pics of your rear end set up. Thanks for the welcome and the kind words!

Damn...mine was just four pieces, the two halfs and two fragments. All I know is that it was the most pain ive ever felt...not breaking it but living with it...the pins...the fact that you can feel it shifting when you lay down...the pin rupturing my skin and causing ER trips...the entire thing was just no fun at all.

I gave 6 years active duty to the Air Force. Best and worst 6 years of my life so far!

Thank you for the kind words.

I don't yet have the FAYS II watts link but that along with a roll cage and subframe connectors is next on the list.
