GlockLimited9,

Do you have pro-spacers on the front and rear wheels?

Looks good!

Furc, Nope no spacers, and nothing rubs at all.

However, This car is getting the 13" Brakes i had for the Ws6 because shes gettin some 14in 6 pistons So im gonna have to space the front out so the caliper clears the rim spokes.

Thanks for the nice words guys, definatly alot of late nights, but i live for this stuff, i dont think i could ever buy a new car, id have to rip it apart and make it my own lol

I LOVE how the car looks in the color it is now, i get constant complements, i was going for a " Two Lane Blacktop" 55 chevy color and i think i nailed it, but with all the ricers around here with their spray painted black junk boxes, i gotta throw some color on it.

Few more pics i found



My front sway bar was broken on the end, i replaced them both with new 1LE, painted them both before install of course

Tough to see here but the outer frame rail was dented and kinked, it was basically just cosmetic, but i replaced it with a new gm one, i would always know it wasnt perfect lol


Test fittin the side skirts, and you can see my POR-15 on the back, i went over that with some premium sound deadner/ undercoat

I love threads like this, it was fun following your old build. I'm sure you'll do great work with this one as well.
