Kinda hard to see the pics on my phone but it looks like he has one heck of a start. How many batts is he running? I would at least bridge the rear with a C channel. Those rear spring towers are weak. They usually bend up into the trunk and/or the rear coils dig a hole into the trunk.
 
he is using six battery's.the frame is allready twisted.i well be building a better frame for it.going to boxed it and reinforce the frame.the car is clean,but i think she is hiding a dirty secret (rust).it has complete monte ss interior painted black and maroon.
 
Full frame wrap is the way to go. My frame is wrapped and I have had no issues with it.
 
how hard was it to wrap the frame?

Black Magic Hydraulics out of Las Vegas did mine. From what I understand its a lot of work. If this is your first I would check out the hydraulic section on layitlow.com. A couple of guys have some pretty nice buildup threads. They have tons of members so you may have to do some searching to find the threads. Just to give you an idea the other day I was on the site there were over a thousand people on the site.
 
we have a set up from Black Magic Hydraulics.i looked at layitlow,but i haven't sign up on it.i never mess with Hydraulics.i always build fast cars.the monte has three pumps and four switches.i have a extra ss frame that i'am going to instill the body on.i like how low it sits,but i love my bbc monte ss.i well get more pic's of the monte.
 
thanks for the link.now i know what i need to go.
