  1. Cool car, try deleting the app then reinstall it. I have to do that from time to time when I can't upload pictures.

    So after last weekend shake down for the car...here is the to do list.

    1. Replace fanbelt and machine off some materials off the pulley so it lines up better
    2.. adjust / fix driver front brake drum...found a leak.
    3. Gl*** at least windshield
    4. Fuel lines

    I'm sure there will be A LOT more ro come. But so worth it...

    It's going to be lowered 3-4 inches hopefully next weekend. Now it's stock but than I have higher profile tires ( which I love) so it rides a bit high. I dig it, pops doesn't so we are swapping springs and axles

    As far as the paint, I'll let you know. Kinda of a flat red. Really durable

    So the old girl got an at***ude adjustment. Dropped the front down 5.5" with a drop axle and reverse eye spring. Than did a medium arch T spring in the *** end. Lowering it 3" or so. It has a slight rake and looks dam good if I do say.

    Better photos this weekend for sure.

    Next task is interior panels and kit. Anyone got any tips or ideas? I would love a little hand rolled aluminum with a pad to match the seat....
