Nice work !! Looking good !!

Thanks all for the compliments! I will definitely upload some photos and measurements of the rear modifications when I get back under the car. I've been focused on the interior lately but I'm getting closer to finishing up underneath.

So unfortunately life's curb balls have been hitting me from all angles. The car was obviously side lined but I have decided to keep going on things that don't really cost money at the moment. I don't really have anything too exciting going on but I got my windshield installed today. I got new glass and had my chrome polished. Shout out to Smiley in San Francisco for his polishing skills. He did a great job! If anyone is in the bay area and looking for a guy pm me and I'll give you his number. There's not too many guys doing it around here anymore.

Now it's time to straighten out this mess. Anyone have ideas on mounting the Dakota Digital control boxes? I have the dash unit and the electric fan setup. I'm thinking of making a plate for those and the relays so I'm not drilling any holes. I'm also thinking of making a plate to go behind the glove box for my MSD, coil, and solenoid. I am planning on mounting the battery behind the rear seat over the axle.

Window trim looks great!

Nothing like that rear quarter - sexy!!!:relax:

Thanks guys! Is anyone running QA1 or Viking rear coil-over kits? I can't find shock length data on any brands except QA1. They are calling their shock 20.5" extended and 14" collapsed. Here's a shot of my measurement collapsed which is about 14" but I'm afraid that might be too close. The rear end is not touching the frame here, just lying on the bump stops. I plan on setting the car up as low as I can which I am guessing will be about two inches higher than it is here. Am I over thinking it or should I get a shock that's about an inch shorter?

Here are the measurements for Ridetech coilovers. It looks like the 6.9 will work for you based on the measurements you provided.

Stroke......Compressed......Ride Height......Extended......Spring Length
2.9"..............8.73".............10.5"......... .....11.63"............8"
3.6"..............9.43".............11.5"......... .....13.03"............8"
4.1"............10.13".............12.5".......... ....14.23"...........10"
5.2"............11.23".............14.5".......... ....16.43"...........12"
6.3"............12.33".............16"............ .....18.63"...........14"
6.9"............13.13".............17.25"......... ....20.03"...........14"

*Check your other thread regarding shock lengths. Josh provided some good info regarding the Ridetech coilover conversion kit.

Sorry life's getting in the way but you're doing great work. The car looks fantastic!

Thanks for the Ridetech feedback. I am eagerly awaiting my new kit for the rear so I started back on the wiring. I got the fuse block mounted
