Well i have managed toget the chassis all cleaned up, had to use some pretty small bits to clean up some major glued areas, and also had to make a new lower control arm/engine mount which is done......... chassis is painted..............And also made up a pair of new leaf springs...........kinda crude looking right now will i get the end perches done........the rear and and leaf springs will be semi gloss black............ Also cleaned up the rear end and have it drilled for a metal axle..........getting closer to having it up on all 4 tires............OH and decided i will make this the coupe instead of a convert......... putty has been appyed............     |
