Now your cooking! I can see sheet metal in your future.
Huge step Scott. How long did the blasting process take? What media did they use?

thanks! yea i have a ton of metal work but im a body man so its just work, oh and that silly green paper stuff.

they showed up at 9am and wern't done till around 3-4. they used sand on most of it, just barely dusted the crud off the roof, it was thin. Then soda blasted the hood....which i wouldn't recommend. They clean-up process is odd and now they have to come re-blast it. flash rusted everything

Pulled all the springs and shocks out of the car so i can mock up some wheels over my lunch break tomorrow. i had these TWO laying around if anyone wants them. they actually fit perfect. 18x8.5 with a 30mm offset. i could be 5mm off either direction. its the middle ground that they dont sell anymore.

Got a new to me 22 gallon Fuel safe cell and QA1 rear upper control arms today.

here is the reason for messing with the suspension last night. FORGELINE

looks to be 11.5 rear and 10.5 front. Ill have a little work to do to make them work. Sorry for the terrible pics

Those are very racy and look right at home there.

Keeping with the stock 10 bolt, has 3.55 Richmond gears. using the stock boxed lower arms with poly bushing that i did a long time ago, will save me some money over buying new ones for now

You're making great progress, Scott. The Forgelines are a nice choice
