Definitely gonna need those taller tires.

Looks mean! Remind me, is this your old Monte or was it too rotten and this is a surrogate body?

Just like how I built my Buick... and the wagon if you really think about it. Hmmm...

Built a pair of raised spring perches and some (6) 1/4" plastic shims for added adjustment. Got the differential down off the snubber so that was a plus. It is going to need some more tweaking... but, we are moving in the right direction.

Oh, and this happened... tuckin' 325s.

The front is sitting on the bump stops, so it is weight jacking it to the rear. Going to need those drop spindles and tall BJs soonest.

Hello Kitty...

Fat bottom girls.

Yes, I am flexing on you.

That looks kick-*ss! I will admit I did not like the mock up wheels before. How wide are those tires in inches?
