John,

Your frame is shaping up very nicely. I hope mine turns out that nice. Couple of questions. What minimum ground clearance are you going with? I was going with 5", but I think it will be closer to 4" once we get my motor jammed in. I still can't decide how much I will need in the "real" world.

Also, did you chance your mind about the shockwaves? I noticed that you have QA1's being mocked up.

Pete

P,

The coilovers I am using are Chris Alston Double Adjustable Varishocks. Ride height will be between 4" and 5". Corvettes are usually around there so you should not have any issues.

Nothing terribly exciting! I was bored and decided to post these pics up. We hung the doors for fitment, got the power steering pulley on the motor and are fine tuning some of the rear end stuff but, for the most part, we are just waiting on parts and materials. Rodgers waiting for some dyes for his bender so he can start on the cage.









Hopefully I can have some basic pics of the cage and some of the other parts bolted to the car!

John

There are probably a few reasons to come to cali. But I think you need to bring that truck of yours or the 57. If you give me a ride in yours I'll give you a ride in mine, you'll have to talk to John about the ride in his.
