Plenty of room...........


i talked with kostya for a lil on the phone about those rear wheels. those wheels on localboys car likely have a much higher offset than those sprints. you can look at notchos car with a 15x5.5 and the 205/75-15s and it is right on the fender with a higher offset wheel also with the short axles. i think it is gonna be tight. i think the drop will play a huge part in how they work out.

The dash came in from Just Dashes today :dance: Looks pretty good. ISP says the windshield does NOT have to come out to get this in??? Anyone have any personal experience? Look at the last picture, there's an edge down at the bottom of the dash. I guess it gets covered with a trip piece??? Sorry in advance, these are fuzzy Iphone pics :(


i have not had my dash off, but i bet with an og dash it can be done without taking the dash out. dash turned out nice btw!

I've been digging on this notch trying to get some history and stumbled on some very cool stuff :dance: It turns out that Alex at ISP did the full restoration for a collector in Mexico. I talked to Alex for awhile and he remembered the car and sent me a bunch of restoration pictures. He's going to send me any documentation he had and the Invoice also. He picked the car up from a recycler in the desert in 1995 for $400. He said the car was incredibly dry. They completed the restoration in 2001. I can't believe how clean that car still is :shock: Here's some of the Pics.

After a long 8 hour day...

Definitely going to be tricky getting the wheels in there. With the 5.5" BRMs and 205/65s, the tires rub the fender. The tires will probably have to be 185s or 195s on the Sprints. The front is getting lowered next.
