Me and my brother started this 4 seat car for a customer aprox 15 yrs. Ago. It was never finished and I purchased it back 2 months ago to do a "budget" build. It started out as a dual rear shock car with single front and manual steering. I've been collecting parts, some new some used, for the past month.  Plan is bypass all around and power steering. Today was the first day with Sawzall.

Car came with 6 chrome shocks. I had mirage racing rebuild and valve them.  Bill also found me 2 10in. Bypasses foe the front quickly, which isn't easy right now

Worked on mounting of 2.5 rack today. Other cars we built would use 2.0 rack. Need to do a little re designing.

man I haven't been down Edison Hwy in a looong time, thought the shop was closed???

 
9Working to get mounts for transmission drawn and cut. Not a lot of stuff available for an hv24. All mounts fot front shocks being cut. On a side note, I purchased wheels from Kiezer wheels. They are 3 piece, they don't normally sell them for 5 on 205 but they found 4 old centers the made for some formula v cars I n the past so I purchased all 4 centers.  Wheels are great. I received them aprox. 2 weeks ago and last week the business burnt to the ground.  4 million in damages the report said.  Sad to hear. More updates to come. Tires are some "n.o.s." 35.5 xtremes.

Awesome Build  - Keep it coming ... We just put a set of Keizer wheels on a Buddies Pro-street 64 Impala - they are impressive wheels

 
Been working on this after hours last couple of months.  Don't have the patience I use to and the fabrication skills are as good with age and not being used last few years. Long way to go but thought  If I slammed the arms, shocks and wheels on it I would get motivated.
