Getting started, we pulled everything from the chassis to get the undercarriage media blasted as well as gutted the vehicle of its interior. Aaaaaaand to our surprise, it looks like this car was in a front end collision that snapped one of the frame extensions in half and bent the other. For a fix, it looks like someone crudely welded the passenger side back together and filled with body filler. So before we can really jump into the build, that issue needed to be addressed. the remedy of course is to simply swap the extensions out for new frame extensions. Once we got the frame aligned, it was time to install the Heidts subframe connectors. Only needing to shave a few areas, the connectors went in pretty easily. Next, for the purpose of adding more rigidity to the chassis, we added a roll cage and started tubing the front.
