Got the engine bay, underneath the body and front sub frame painted. Sanded and painted rearend, rebuilt drums, 4.11's installed, rearend installed with new leaf springs, Qa1 shocks, cal tracks and sub frame connectors. Currently working on front suspension. I will update photos of that when finished. So far replaced upper control arms(Qa1), pitman arm, idler arm, steering box, Qa1 shocks, and front disc conversion. Its almost a roller!! So stoked for that. Once its a roller we will sandblast the trunk and cockpit, then lizard skin that, and motor can go in.

Absolutely stunning!! That's a beautiful car!! I believe the color is called metallic velvet red, and will have the roadrunner style stripes on the hood in gun metal gray. The wheels are an 18X10 in the back, and 18X7( if i remember correctly), in the front.
