few more updates from today

modified the subframe a bit more on both sides. I still need to beef up the back of it.

finally have both sides "together"! kept forgetting parts in my garage.. its just sitting there, wanted to see how wide the track really was on the car

Its not perfectly centered. but close enough to get an idea of what Im up against. The subframe does need to go up a little along with the control arms too. Nothing was measured for this quick mock up.

once I saw it I figured i would try and pull the fenders out once everything is solid. I know for a fact they have at least 1" of movement in them still.

how badass does this look??

those pictures were with zero camber. I added about -2*

I cant believe how much it tucked in! I only did one side, didnt want to lose my measurements on the other control arm for factory length.

Its... PERFECT! well it will be I should say.


I probably wont make it out to work on it more for a few weeks.. but when I do Ill be able to finish up the subframe bracing at least.

This thing is wild! That V8 fits in there nicely. Will be the ultimate sleeper.
