Ok...Before the chassis mods the rear tires were just hanging out there waaaay too far:



This will be alot better. Gotta get the ride height correct for the rear as well as in the front but that shouldn't be much of a problem. I've also got some better wheels inbound which should help this build out ALOT.

That does look better. Still amazed how you do this!

Thanks Lyle! I just treat it like it's a real car and go from there.

[Stuart]

That looks awesome Joe!

Thanks Stuart.

This build is coming to a stall out for a moment. Shouldn't be too long but I'm now waiting on a set of wheels for it that are coming from Canada. I've gotta wait to do anything else with the suspension till those make it in. Here's a shot of the wheels. Just couldn't pass these up guys.



Then there's the engine. The engine that's supposed to be in this car is a 427 and I have a 429 Boss. The Boss engine kit is a true wonder but it's the wrong engine.

The interior is at a standstill as well because I'm going to order a PE shifter for it as well as fabricate a couple of other things.

I'm still doing things like cleaning the body up and prepping other areas of the build so stay tuned. This one will be back soon.

Bringin' this one back up to the top. Been a minute since I've posted in here but I'll be back shortly with updates Tom!!

Finally paint on body! I got a little impatient waiting to let the paint cure so a couple spots needed to take care off.

[LyleW]

Nice!

[mustang1989]

That's got a mighty fine shine to it Tom.

[Stuart]

That looks awesome Tom!
