So Sun am I found a issue and the rear axle housing has to go back. I am out of the game for driving the car to Good Guys this weekend

I will post pics of what the problem was as soon as I catch up with work.

Well I got the first kit they said and they did all the test fits but I added a Fab9 with back brace and the coil over spring contacted the axle back brace just enough to call it not drivable. They are cool guys over there and already have the housing back and are changing the brace to clear. Just one of those things with too many options not working together but not the end of the world. I should have it back in another week and going to put her together.

Been really busy with work but they called and said it's all figured out and fixed and they also finished the new sway bar I was waiting on but the owner wanted (asked) to use my axle to have powder coated and take pics all together for there catalog and on line pics, I didn't need it back so I said it was cool. Maybe get it next week depending on how things look and then install and take new pics.

Hey I heard that the guys from Chassisworks still got you into the GG show for free even though your car wasn't ready. That's a kick ass salesman for sure.
You should know as good as anyone, it's always better to hold off and do it the way you want to, the first time. Now you're getting the killer sway bar installed that you really wanted, plus it'll all be powdercoated and assembled when you get it.

Keep us posted on your build progress, especially with that body style getting ever more popular each day, I'm sure the list of followers will increase. I'm sure some of on here, hint hint, will want to go for a ride when you get it all finished up.

Catch ya later

Oh man it's the world famous Sic Clint !! Whats up buddy, yea thank you for getting me into the show on the KP/Chassis Works dime And yes that was awesome for you guys to powder coat it all now that the sway bar is done. I will be posting pics of it all. Just waiting for the new front end to show up and then we are going to push it over on the lift and have some fun.

Want to come over and help...your not far away.. You can bring your side kick and we will drink beer and have him work on the car..

Very cool of them for sure.

You got a nice arsenal of parts there for sure Nick.

Let me know if I can help out with anything if you need an extra unskilled hand.
