Cheating The Reaper

what if you flip the front bumper 180 degrees ?

That would look...interesting.

It's really not a problem yet. Until it's all together and the ride height is set, I won't really be too concerned. There's a ton of up-adjustment in the coilovers and if you look at the rear, it really needs to be brought down. All this will be determined after the body is on it. No idea when that will be though.

Now currently resting in my Dad's shop waiting for me to make the move and get settled. Hoping to make some forward progress in coming months. I'd like to think I could have it on the road again by the 20 year mark but that's only about a year and a half away.

any progress, no matter how little, is progress!just think, it used to be a pile of parts in the corner, now it's rolled onto a trailer! positive thoughts!

Haha, true. However, it also used to be a running and driving hot rod before it was a pile of parts in the corner.

Was going through my phone and realized I hadn't posted the exhaust. I stayed late at work and bent up the exhaust system a couple days before it got towed to my dad's shop. Wanted to take advantage of the use of a pipe bender before I lost it.

Just felt like bumping the thread. After a 450 mile trailer ride and a year and a half in the corner of my dad's shop, it finally lives in my garage again. No actual work has been done.

That's a pretty dang cool first car!

Thanks, man. Hard to believe it's been 19 years since I last drove it. There's another old thread bump coming. Stay tuned...
