Default Project "Full Throttle Facelift"

So the fun begins (again). The Fed Ex driver called and my '71 RS will be here bright and early tomorrow morning! So if you guys have been down this road- you know my pain- I've got to try and sleep tonight

So here is the skinny- The car is a very nice stock car with a ZZ430 and turbo 350.

The plan... to take a basically stock but fresh car... it sold at Barrett's last Jan....and give it a mild pro-touring face-lift on the cheap- under 7k

This is what I have done so far-

a new design Rushforth rim- this will be the first set- with smoked titanium centers.

lower it about 10-12"- seriously- this thing sits high

I've ordered Baer brakes for all four corners.

I want to upgrade seats and suspension- still undecided on brand- any other helpful ideas are welcome. I know the hood is ridiculous- so I am looking into a hood and one piece rear spoiler- but I don't know if I will mess with it yet.

let's hear your ideas
