Actually Chrysler had the stupid offset to clear the power steering box. Lazy bums. LOL

Actually, they have a bunch of fab guys at the shop. I saw this car in person and the workmanship is amazing! It saw good you almost don't notice it. They also have a bunch of other cool projects in the works but they are holding out on you guys. I guess this one is more pro-touring appropriate though.

Even seeing this car in person, I didn't realized and appreciated all the works thats gone into it until this thread. That's why we loves the pics. Keep them coming and thanks again for posting.

The car is turning out great Tom! Larry showed us this, and all the other projects last year when we came in to order our SBC 427 Hot Rod Series engine from you. You actually just talked to my Dad earlier this month and said our engine should be done somewhere around the end of next month. Look forward to seeing this car in person again after all this work, and even more so to pick up the engine from you!

Here's some shots of the front suspension and us dressing it up a bit We got a Xv Subframe with Billet arms and Vette spindles pretty cool stuff just wanted to gussy it up a bit before we installed it.

Some neat washers we made to bolt up the subframe we also welded in solid threaded insert in the frame so you would not see the thru bolt from the top side of the frame.
