So I have made some progress over the last couple weeks. Got the coil over suspension installed front and rear along with new bearings and rotors in the front. Rear bearings and rotors are next. Here are a couple shots of the car. The first is the day I got here and the second is after the suspension install.

When ever I get frustrated with progress I look at that first photo.

Flat like this?

Here's links to it on the Bird Board and BaT too:

Absolutely! That car is one of the cars that inspires me to keep going. I love the little touches and the big ones too. I could only hope to end up with something half as cool. The blue I am thinking of is much darker though. Not so dark that it turns black in the shade but dark.

The color combinations you are considering are killer. I would call the colors "drab". They have kind of a dulled out look to them beyond being just a flat paint. I also like the look with the all black wheels. Awesome work. Can't wait to see it painted and finished up.

Looking good, who did those 17" 3-piece wheels? Great period look with the ability to run modern rubber!

Wjeels were dome by Clint at Rebel Racing. I painted the centers black with Wurth Trim Semi Gloss. i am going to anodize the centers once the car has been on the road for a while.

Very little progress lately but definitely some blunders on my part. Got the aluminum trailing arms on with the emergency brake stuff. Got the stubs from EASY and waiting on the hubs from Bruce Stone. Here is a little update pic.

That is my plan. My 7 year old has already laid claim to it. He says his oldest brother gets it till his middle brother get to be 16 and then he gets it when he is 16 and since he does not have a younger brother it is his to keep. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

I have a set of early 911 Turbo seats for her. They are a bit worn but comfortable.
