Got some high build primer on the dome of the problem areas to see where Im at as far as getting the body straight, its getting closer.
I also got the hood, trunk, and doors all tore down and ready to get soda blasted and primed
Also got this nifty little parts tumbler to clean up some hardware. I wish i would have taken a before shot because this thing did a great job!

The Q45 (3.54) swap should help you with the differential and axle issues. The setup has been pushed to over 900rwhp and 800 lbs/tq. Shoot me a pm if you need more info on whats needed. I did the swap recently and also changed out most of the bushings to Energy Suspension bushings except the SPL Solid Diff Bushing. Car should feel much more solid like this and handle any abuse I can throw at it.

Man the attention to detail on this build and that shop have me highly envious, like I should just never do a build because I couldn't live up to that haha.
The storms here in MI holding you up lately have been a pain, delayed some aspects of my basement remodel as stuff is stored in my detached garage.

Ok I figure its time for an update.
Cleaned some more bolts up, I still need to grab some pics after the polishing process. But at least I got some before pictures this time.
Before
After
I got the high capacity cover all blasted and clear coated
The chassis got sent away for a partial cage (from the main hoop back)
Adjustable suspension arms came in
And just finished installing the cover onto the diff this evening
