So, into the garage it goes today to investigate. I jack it up--check the rear suspension, then let the car back down---well--I did that a bit to quick and the highest part of the floor jack pushes in the gas tank as they collide. All in all a great day at the Renner household.
So, I am now stopping work on the racecar and will focus all funds and time on this pile. I knew this car would be jealous that I was touching the other one. So the plan is to get my new Speedtech Chicayne rear and torque arm in the car. In order to swap this rear into the car I still need the following;
Run brake lines on rearend (Fab 53--Ron's car will have to wait some more)
Powdercoat the new rearend and torque arm (Local)
Baer 14 in Pro Plus rears (Speedtech)
II Much vent for rearend
Other stuff that will cost more than I think
Things I have in inventory already:
Spreedtech Chicayne Rear
Speedtech Torque arm setup (upgraded with Ridetech shocks)
DSE brake booster (necessary for new rear disc setup)
Third Member (Moser Alumininum Thru bolt 9 inch)
Will get some pics up of these parts soon. Install and timing coming.
I'm still mostly upset about the damage to the gas tank---wondering if I can push the dent out if I drop it out of the car.

Just get a suction cup -- like they use for installing windshields - or at body shops for pulling dents out.... It'll pop right back into place - but WILL be stretched so will never be the same without shrinking it etc. Think oil can...
