Pretty much where that last pics are. I flew back to AZ Aug. 17th, my next trip up I'll be getting more work done on it... my parents are still living up there and plan to move out here to AZ.
 
Figured I'd give a little update... I happened to find a guy on Craigslist with some Iroc wheels, and was able to trade him straight up for the 17x9.5s. He met my dad at the house and they did the swap.

Remaining to-do list:
Torque rear suspension
Finish installing front sway bars/braces
Alignment
Remaining floor repairs (temporary)
Carpet
Shifter trim/boot/new shifter stick
Seat covers (temporary)
 
It'll likely be when they move, just makes things easier... not 100% sure I'd take it cross country without putting some miles on it near home in case something goes south.
 
Hey, just curious what size tires are on those irons you have, they fit in there real nice!
 
The day has finally come 🙂

My parents brought a moving truck out with some of their stuff so they don't have to move it all when they sell the house... and they brought it as a surprise 😀 Still a bit of work to do, been sorting/arranging the stuff they brought out though. This moved my timetable forward quite a bit, so hopefully within the next few months I can have it on the road 😀
