Yesterday I turned the car around to do some welding after all that butchery, but then I discovered what a hypocritical dumbarse I am. I set a fender in place, and realized I hadn't moved the crossmember back. The front wheels were way too far forward. Now I have to move everything back an inch, then mock it up. And even if that goes well, now I have this hassle of the steering linkage. Even at an inch I'll still have slightly more wheelbase, and positive caster, than stock. I seldom worry about looks, and I don't mind the idea of the wheels not being centered in the wells, but this needs corrected.

Not dead. In fact, just got the Moog CC877 springs assembled onto the struts, after a bit of modifying the springs.

I did a little trimming on the struts, the spring seat, but then when I tried to put the wheels on, the tire rubbed the spring. So I had to undo alot, turn the spring a quarter turn, then I felt I had to spot weld the tip of the coil to the spring seat. Pics to follow. Anyway, now the car rolls.
I need to get the engine and trans in the car, to free up some garage space, before making some custom brackets to mount the Brembo calipers.
