What do you have done to the front suspension? I would guess you need it pretty stiff (or air ride) to run that low.

Drop spindles, tubular control arms, coilovers (at there HIGHEST setting). We'll see how she sits with the widebody on, but I can always run taller springs to bring it up. I think they are 8" 350 Front /400 Rear.. springs.

It looks great, but from my experience, you will probably have to raise it up just a little, even with that stiffness.

I love the blue 87s, the wheels fit the car great and of course the turbo northstar will do it wonders, and probably not sound too bad

Keep making progress is all I can say

Progress? I might be able to do that. First meet some friends of mine.

This is Cosworth. He's a Husky / Border Collie and he helps me out from time to time.





Then theres my inspiration... Meet Lobban. This little guy came with the car, and the P.O.'s name was Mr. Lobban.... glad you figured it out!



He just peeks over the cluster from time to time to make sure I'm still workin!

Speaking of work! Hey I actually did something today! Awesome.

Home Depot special,





Not too hard if you have ever installed carpet in a house before. Start out with a 3ft by 6ft piece of carpet (each side) and start cutting and carving tell it fits just perfect. I like it.

A little more progress on this guy.







I just had these from a parts car (sts) so I figured they might look not too bad modified a little bit. Everything is going "tan or beige" btw... I'll be weeding out all the grey eventually.

Firstly, I must say that this build is intense. I'm completely jealous of every aspect of this car. But also, are these gates functional? Sorry if you said it earlier in the thread, I just had time to look at the pics..
