I've been slacking on updates here but rest assured, the car is torn apart for upgrades again lol.
Smith frame, arms, manual rack, plates, etc.

Sneek peak at the wheel combo. Going old school on this one. The discontinued Mickey ET drag wheel (15x12) closey resembles a "slot". Picked up a set of 15x4 "Gyros" for the front. Magnesium style finish. Should go well with the green. I'll have it on the ground soon.

Subframe and front suspension will save 150lbs. Taking another 100 off elsewhere.
I have not. I'll try to dig it up.
I'll be using the same Viking coilover conversion kit I did before. Kind of an in between a big spring and a coilover.
Rears were 15x10 with 7.5 bs. Can't remember the fronts. 4" I think.
