First order of business, I wanted to rebuild the front end with new ball joints, tie rod ends, springs, and the brake upgrade.

I don’t know what springs were in it when I got it, but it looked like it was shooting for some good 60’s! Definitely had to fix that ASAP!

Cool back story. Looks like a nice car. I also like the car’s crib. Nice empty garage. LOL

Thank you for the replies! I have more updates to post and I will soon. All the pics are on my phone, so I will get them downloaded from there.

In the meantime, I have ordered new wheels. I am going with 18" and 20" versions of the Boyd Coddington Junkyard Dog. Once I get those in, whenever that will be, I'll mount some tires and check ride height. I think the front end is still sitting a little high. We shall see.

If time permits, I am hoping to start mocking up the Vintage Air system to see how and where I can mount the Holley Terminator X Max and run all the wiring. I know I will be fabbing up a center console for it, so it will most likely be tucked away inside it. I do not have the means to smooth the firewall and make fancy, but I will clean it up as best I can. I was thinking about getting the Terminator X Firewall pass through from Sharpe Performance. Is anyone here using that? Thoughts? I would also like to use a bulkhead plate for the AC system rather than passing the hoses through the firewall. I think that would help clean up the firewall somewhat.

If anyone has any suggestions or tips, please feel free to share them. I would appreciate it.
