Default Nice car

That's a nice car you have. Color is very complimentary to the shape. Like the new wheels, I hope they didn't set you back as much as I think they may have. My optometrist's runs them on his BMWs and I think they are sharp. But he's told me that they are pricey. So I'll go lower budget for mine.

Very nice,
Tell us more about your drivetrain and what is next.

Also get Dad to post up that '69 build.

HRE's are pricey, but you get what you pay for.

As for drivetrain in my car, I'm currently running a built up 350 motor. Plans for a fuel injected LS motor are in the future, after I recover from this round of upgrades. lol. I'm running a blow-proof bell housing with a Centerforce clutch, transmission is a Tremec TKO600 5-speed and the rear is a narrowed Moser 9" with 3:89 gears. Of coarse the rear suspension is now a Detroit Speed Quadralink with adjustable coilovers. Front suspension is the Detroit Speed Hydroformed subframe with tubular A-Arms, C6 vette spindles and adjustable coilovers.





Here's a shot from before I put the motor in... Good shot of the DSE subframe

"HRE's are pricey, but you get what you pay for."

Absolutely, it doesn't get any better than DSE and HRE.

Thanks Guys! Pulled the rear back out to run all my brake lines. Since I switched from leaf springs to the Quadralink I need to re-route the lines on the body and make new ones for the new narrowed rear. Body lines are done and rear is ready to go! Went with some rock guard on the rear lines for added protection.

Do you have a list of the parts you used and where you got them? Im about to to do the same thing on the rear end and it would help me out a ton.
