I'm sure you know this Bubba, but the c4 spindles are parallel top and bottom. The angle that allows for the anti-dive in the corvette is in the upper a arm (the upper ball joint is at an angle to the inner a-arm pivot points, when viewed from the side)

with new front suspension I will build my own crossmember to mount everthing on so I need to use parts that will be easy to install and be reliable and so far the vette components are the most user friendly just need to get the desine done then decide what spindles to use

finaly did the head liner and new visers and I hope it is cooler tomorrow so I can get it into the car

updates to be posted on wensday

Just a bump for the Wednesday updates.

Bump. Been awhile since I seen this thread at the top. Anything new?

i wonder if bubba is having health issues. he hasnt taken this long to update in quite some time.

sorry guy's but the high heat bad hummidity and smog levels so high my asma wont let me out of the house . The temp is starting to go down here and I will be back to work in a week or so and will post what I have done so far . I am getting sick of being stuck in the house

I know what you mean by the heat and humidity, it's no fun here in NY either. I've been wanting to work on my car but the weather and the sun just take the fun right out of it. Did he say "sun"? Yes, here in Binghamton were not used to having that bright ball of burning gas beat down on us as much as it has lately! Keep up the good work and do the right thing by taking care of yourself first.

Florida... sun, heat, humity, daily thunder storms... it's a way of life (at least from June to October).

well it's about time.....

still plays with cars..

having to live with sever asmah is no fun when you are 1000 feet from lake ontario in 90 deg weather with 70+ percent humidity
very hard to breath and smog so thick you think its foggy out side in the midle of the day cooler now and better for my health

its been a few days over 2 years since this thread was started. and its coming closer and closer to being finished!

Bub,
Glad you're feeling better. I realy don't miss that crappy Toronto air! Don't push yourself to much, staying alive is worth more than any car project.
Anyway, at the rate I'm going, you will still finish your monumental project before I finish my comparitivly tiny one!!!

Griff.

if that T.O. air is so bad you can always move out here to the praries and not have to worry bout all the smog. and i could see this project in person.

was out west in 90 and loved it but all my family is here in Ontario

head liner done and I need some help on desining the new rocker panels i will post a couple of pics to work with

Hm... You could go with the M3-style rockers. There have to be some that fit, and IMO they would look pretty good.

scaled back a little this would look good and does not look to complicated to make keep it up

My advice get the madman (madcurl) involved. That guy has more great ideas than you could ever believe possible.

Fourpoint9 that looks good.

Whatever you decide, please carry it over and bring down the front and rear gfx to the same level otherwise it will look goofy,....IMO.

Are you going to use the 87/88 front and rear fascias? If you are, you're going to have to do something with them as well, to get it all to match. Honestly, I think the stock ground f/x pieces that are on there are going to limit your choices. You'll have to match the front and rear with those, then whatever you do with the rockers.

Scaled back alittle and somethin' for the rear bumper.

now you definatly have some thing here i can sink my teeth into just to figure out the amount of flairing

now I will have to go buy some mdf to make up the moulds for the rocker covers and start the moulding process as every thing is refined
