    Coilovers on

    Took some pics today got coilovers on last night.

    Im working on restoring the Fittipaldis. I got 2 done so far welding up and filing down the curb rash is a lot of work.













    Body damage from a hit and run.



    Car should be getting painted next month I hope to have time.

                The rear tires are still what the wheels PO had on them which is 205/60 /15 way to tall front tires are 205/50/15. Ill be swapping them all to the 205 /50's because I have them laying around.

                The wheels are 15x7et26 fittipaldi Monolithics with a 10mm spacer in the rear.

                Ill be rapping them wit 225/50/15 soon.

                            with billysport and 1 finger gap on my car, it has no travel. i got my strut housing shorten by M&C performance in Lodi for $70. now i'm running ix hd billy and it feel much better now.

                              hmm It hasnt bottomed out so IDK.

                              It seems good. There not allthe way down but there close I think I have two threads at the bottom.
