I have been ordering parts and prepping the underside to receive the QuickPerfomance 9". I bought a Eaton trutrac with 31 spines and new axles. I also bought a new gas tank, mine leaked and had more patches than Joseph's coat of many colors.

My neighbor TIG'd in the new Moser fill bung and the Currie drain bung, after i cleaned up the housing that appears to have been submerged in the Titanic.

I need to do a quick sand job on the inside of the trunk and spray it while I spray the underside of the car.

I think Dr Frankenstein hacked the old perches off with a smoke stick and moved them over a tad, I cleaned up the mess. I will fix it when I 4-link it.

That scoop looks surprisingly familiar...

Great work Joe! How do you like that front suspension?

Joe,

As long as you get this altogether before ROB... I'm a happy guy! It's really satisfying to see stuff turn out well isn't it?!? The comparison pic of the rear end before and after is "WOW". Nice filler addition too!

Thanks guys :)

Rob, I took my wife for a ride in it yesterday and as soon as we got back I remembered the video that I forgot. It was getting dark and I still dont have the headlights installed.

Jason it rides real nice, sits real low, one of those big a$$ tires on the right front rubs when I turn too sharp.

Here is the mod I finished yesterday in preperation for the scoop, and I got rid of the cheap chrome valve covers.
