Looks like I will be, yes. The plan, currently, is to update with the more modern version of the G-Link with the integrated sway bar. Since I have a new housing, I will weld on the Alston brackets that come with their setup---as if I ordered the rear from them--so no leaf spring pads. Then it will most likely get the new Baer Floater setup and finish it off with the new rear brakes to tie in to the fronts. I'm skepticle about getting it all done before the RTTC event. We'll see what happens.

The name for the car came while I was in the garage one night, late, and fighting to get the front LCA's into the car (bolt on--u know how a lot of these stories go). I had the movie "Apollo 13" on and just as I was reaching my point of complete physical and mental exhaustion laying under the car, there was a part in the movie where in order for them to stay alive on the busted up ship--floating in space with no power--they had to jam some square breathing filters into a setup made for round ones. They had to use all kinds of duct tape, plastic bags, etc. to make it all work. I felt the pain and could identify--LOL. So, that's how it came to be. Seems like the car fights me with just about every bolt on.
