Sure is, I keep going out in the garage to drool over the craftsmanship and quality of the welds.

I love the car and the idea of leaving the patina on it. however if you go with that look the wheels will not look right if your going with the old weathered look shiny wheels just look odd. or you could just plati dip the wheels to hide the shiny if you decide to paint it later you can just spray it off and your shiny is back. just my 2 c worth of input I like what you have so far keep up the great work!

Me too! I am dying to get going on this project but I am waiting to get the car into the body shop to have the right rear rail pulled. It is bent a little and I don't want to weld in the mini tubs or start on the 4 link until I know it's straight.

Well, the front brakes I got from ebay have the wrong brackets ( they sent me the base model brackets instead of the z51) so I am put in a position to make a choice here. These z51 rotors minimum wheel diameter is 18" however the brackets I have is for the base rotors which min. wheel diameter is 17" So I could buy the right brackets and run 18's or I could by the smaller rotors that match my brackets and run 17's

I am planning on having the car sit low and I think I could pull of 18's with no problem but I am really having a hard time making a decision.
