Thanks guys. Im gearing up to order undercoating and get a welder to finish what is needed. I also plan on starting to hang the rear and front subframe this weekend. Then after all that it will be preping the car and paint. Hopeing to have this all done by the start of spring. Well see..

Smart move spending the $$$ for the completed shell. Much better than doing panel replacement on the old one.

Yep. In the long run im sure it was well worth it. Now I need bigger wheels and tires. btw love what your doing with your car

So I worked on the car this weekend. Figured out the subframe assembly and speedtech solid mounts. I also have polyurethane mounts but figured if I don't like the solid mounts I can always switch them out. The undercoating should be here tomorrow. So hopefully that will start soon. I also stripped and painted the U bolts for the rear assembly and received the brackets I need to start putting the rear together. Hopefully the assembly of that will start tomorrow night after work. More updates to cone soon.

Two questions for you guys.

1. How does moser know the angle that would be needed for the 4 link set up? I know they have a jig but wouldn't ever car be different?

2. I have to weld in the upper support for the dash. Anyone know where I can see some info on this..? Measurements? Ect..?

[boostin05blacks]

So finished test fitting the rear yesterday night to make sure everything is good in that area. The upper brackets will need to be welded to the rear but from what im told I wont be able to find that angle untill I have a motor and trans so that will have to wait for now. Im picking up the undercoating tonight and hoping to start that this weekend. Everything will be removed from the car and the whole underside, trunk and interior floor/firewall will be done. More pictures and updates to come soon. Also I think eventually Ill need some bigger wheels and tires all around. Mainly in the rear. My 17x9 w/ 275/45 are just lost in those tubs. Any one have something that will fit better for the right price..? Heres some pictures..
