I need to check in here more often, there's a lot to learn on this thread.
I really like that rack.....and that talk on the bags blows me away.

I have several drums, and another complete beam with steering column.....Let me know what bolts you need?

What's the offset on sprint stars?
Those are gonna look great.
Oh, and that's the first real nice smooth dash I've seen.....I completely agree, it makes the car look more vintage. Done right, I bet nobody would even know it's missin a pad.

Nice job :thumbs:

Chuck, any word on the ball joint nuts and washers? Kostya and I got the top mounts for the airbeam cut out tonight, and the right side is welded in place. It looks like it is going to work really good. I cut off the top 3" of the shock tower, it looks like I can relocate it inboard a couple of inches with no problem. It will change the angle of the shocks back about 20 deg. I don't think that will make any difference. Thursday evening I will finish it up, and post some pictures. Hopefully we can get some parts to assemble it soon 8-) .
