our goal is to make it a nice cruiser, with a kinda sleeperish side, but modern updates to the suspension and brakes. basic bolt-on's to the motor for now, like headers and a full pypes exhaust, intake, hei update, and new carb. just enough to drive it and get it straightened out, then the power bug can hit him and he can do whatever he wants. believe it or not, i have to restrain him from going crazy with it.
problem areas: needs new drivers side fender, patch on lower drivers side quarter right behind door, little bit of patch work around where the clips attach to the body for the vinyl top trim, cleanup tail light panel, small patch in passenger floor, small patch by pinch weld infront of passenger side rear tire.
what we are doing now: making it a driver, repairing suspension first starting with rear end and working forward
original build sheet found under floor mat:
leaves all broken except one or two:
caltracs, new energy hd shackles, u-bolts, etc., new multileafs are out getting the aluminum front eye bushings put in:
in a couple days should be sitting pretty on its own again.
