Another Berber Yellow I love it good choice ! I also have a 1975 which I converted to a 3.0 with GT flares. Looks like you got a clean one good luck with the project.


Nice! That's the look I have in mind for this one.

Are your flares steel or glass?

Sorting through my parts supply getting ready to install the suspension and brake upgrades....

Here are the rear control arms nicely powdercoated with 5 lug hubs, new bearings and bushings installed, compliments of Bruce (bdstone914 on the world)

Thanks Bruce...Great parts!!

I plan to run the 15x6 Cookie Cutters, that you can see setting under the car, with 205/60-15's for now until I do phase II and install the flares.

The flares are metal, they were purchased on a group buy from AA. Installed them myself then had a friend do the body work/respray.

Well I had some family situations come up over the last month which put a hold on my project (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) , so instead of having sit for an undetermined amount of time, I passed this project along to (isintampa) a new member on the world (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) who was looking for just this type of project (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif)

I know it is in good hands (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) and I'll be watching it's progress (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)

And...maybe get it back one day (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)
