« on: February 27, 2011, 04:31:19 pm »
long time no see...i scrapped my doored project cuz i didn't like the way it looked, so i ended up buying an '84 with a pretty straight body and frame as a blank canvas. here's some pics of my progress so far...

don't have any from when i first got it, but here is one from after i stripped everything from it and added the '91 core support



i removed the front springs and flipped the rear with shackles also added



shave shave shave (still not done yet)...










here's the motor, stripped and repainted black, also adding more chrome (pulleys, headers, stainless fuel lines)



top bag plates installed



fronts bagged, fender notched



full lift



layed out



lca's about a half inch from touching (eventually gonna add a dropmember, or chop the stock one)



how it's sitting now

I like it. The SS wheels look slick on there, I'd keep them.

     Very good progress, nice job on the shaving.
#1: The easiest and most obvious solution to any problem is 99% of the time correct.
#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.
