So I have slowly and I mean slowly working on the project car. I spent part of the day today working on pulling the wiring harness from the front of the car. I pulled the gas tank and was just checking out how bad the rust under it was when I seen this: WTF

The car has a front swaybar, but check the install. It's not factory that's for sure. Looks like a PO used some sort of home made mount. Well plan for the car does include a front sway bar, but I think I will use the proper way to install it.

H&H Bar and pretty common u-tab crap. Get the Engman pieces and weld it in proper. That will eventually tear. Especially the way you drive! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I figured it was aftermarket. When the time comes I will get the Engman parts and correct it. Makes me wonder how long it has been installed like this? When I got the car it hadn't been on the road in 8 years.
