Congrats again on the win bruh. But let me drop this on ya right quick.. I dont wanna sound pushy fam BUT.....As you start hittin "G body" functions and shows up, you will see some clean setups. You WILL be up against some serious competition that have touched every part of the car--suspension included. Take a look on cardomain and see what the fellas out of vegas are doin. You will see flawless suspension setups. So damn clean you can eat off of em. Now go out and look at your ride. Take a look thru those big wheels and how you can see straight thru the wheels at all that old *ss crud and grime built up on the under body. This is what the judges do see. Hopefully youve touched those areas up. Its not about having all the name brand goodies but a clean setup. Also, you wanna be able to make it to and from the event safely ya dig?Thats all Im sayin. Ive been into the competition scene for over 20 years. If a judge is not lookin at these parts for over all decision, he/she shouldnt be judgin an event. Its the lil things that make the big picture really shine...Its easy to do wheels, paint and sounds. But when you get into the small details, awwww man!!!! That makes all the difference to a judge...

And with that said, I wont bug you about suspension stuffs anymore fam.(smiles :wink: )

Man Im always here to help fam. My schedule is crazy tho(nights) Thats why I havent been thru. But we will hook up and get er done....Keep up the clean *ss work you doin bruh..
 
Re: 1980 El Camino Fresh New Paint!!! TELL ME WHAT U THINK??

you ever need any help with anything bro hit me up, I got all the tools and just finished doing my front end. For the steering and suspension you dont really need any power tools. Yes they help and you;ll save a lot of time but all you really need is a good socket set, a jack, a torque wrench and a lot of elbow grease.
