    Cool! (y) Keep us updated!

    Man, that thing is LOW! I think you need to drop the rear down a inch or so to level it out some.

    Let me know if you have any interior parts left from the brown one that you don't need. I think it may share the same colors as my gold one.

    yea those wheels are just leftover rollers that were drilled out and there arent any coil springs on shock absorbers on the front yet im gonna get to that tommorow. and yea i need a front valence as mine is kinda messed up. sorry mavmike but all the interior is goin in the 69 mav. but after this project is done im gonna sell the rest of the car for several hundred bucks not that there is really anything to sell but ill deal with that when the time comes
