Not done anything on the car because I bought first house and build a garage. But today started working on it in my new garage. Mounted the rear suspension and rear wheels. Pretty happy with the ride height this far. I have 10j rear wheels, I'm thinking to get it widened to 12j. Next thing is...

I'm also thinking about putting a roll bar in the car with aluminium kirkey seats instead of the heavy bucket seats i have right now. Smart choice or not?

Yes lower control arms were paralel to the ground. So that will be okay. Been busy again, mounted the sidescoops. And welded and aligned the brackets for the hood. Almost ready for the epoxyprimer. Will be epoxy primed in 2 weeks or so. I'm planning to make the front fenders and trunk of fiberglass.

No I mounted the leaf springs first, and attached the rear end to it. In this way I kney for sure the location of the rear end would be right etc. I will set tide height and pinion angle when assembling when the car is painted.

Little update. Installed the torque boxes and the Subframe connecter. I had to cut the rear torque boxes so that the Hotchkiss subframe connector could go through. The nice ring is I also welded the Subframe connectors to the rear torque box, so extra solid. Next up is installing the 4 link...

Small update. I finished the panel for the gps/music screen, parking sensor beeper, and some buttons. Made it out of plywood, with 5mm foam layer and leather at top. I will make some sort of trim piece to make the parking sensor nicer. It will come where the radio normally is. I will post...
