                      here are some pics of the progress:









                      custom tranny bracket:


                      cracked windshield + the corbeau's:


                      before pics of my struts...ill update them tonight with the afters




                      ground controls, camber plates, control arms, swaybar bushings, treehouse lollipops, rotors, and pads are on, and now i am starting on the back. lots of more pics i need to upload.

                      this is not a showcar build, just a great weekend/fun build.

                      as soon as i finish the suspension and engine, we start the bodywork and a fresh coat of paint.
