The front end is a modified Fatman that has shockwaves on it. The rearend is Detroit Speeds Quadra Link with a shockwaves on it modified by a c in the rear rails and moving the floor around to make it all work while still getting the exhaust all the way out the back. The floors thru out the car have been moved and reworked to make nothing hang below the rockers the car will roll all the way down. Plus the floors are flat in the car and the seats mount super low in the car. There are jack bolt bungs weld in square tubing along the rockers for future service work and ease of jacking it up down the road. We added an 1 1/4 to the rockers also' Wheels & Tires are CHICAYNES from Billet Specialties but they have ARP bolts machined into them and they are 19s front and 20 rears, we then powdered the centers bronze along with backsides and then powdered the ARP bolts and valve stems black. The nose has a boat load of time in it and we did it 3 times till we liked it we also removed the old nasty impact rubber along the headlight buckets too. Thanks again guys

Do you think You could get me a measurement off that car?

I need the heights of the fender lips on the axle center line. Just the lowest point on each fender lip at the axle center line.

Car looks really sleek. Plus Firebirds are kind of growing on me lately. :thumbsup:
