I will be airbrushing the eyebrow trim and down the fender and door. I don't see paying what people are asking for the real trim items. They are crazy expensive. Sorry, no pics yet.

I was to the point were I needed suspension. I bought a wrecked Vette and started to part it out. It took me 4 and a half hours to drop the entire "chassis." I had never played with a vette like this and didn't know what or how they were assembled. It was interesting, they don't have a tranny cross member.

I dismantled the suspension parts and put them on my frame. We have a roller, almost! I still need to weld the swing arm, adjustable dog bones, and the new sway bar mounting kit.
