Absolutely right, only ever one adjustment at a time🤔

I’m not a big fan of that look, you might want to try gas shocks on the rear also to stop the front end from lifting, if not coil over suspension will cure the problem, unless your running over a hundred miles an hour the spoiler will do nothing. Sorry I’m not trying to rain on your parade, just trying to offer an opinion.

Yes the brakes are aligned properly as per Wilwood and I do have a shock brace on it, the car is complete now, those pictures are from a couple of years ago

Yea, I can attest to that too, what I used to do in an hour now takes me all day, I’m sure it’s why retirement is at 65

Hopefully you recover quickly and get one more run in your weather is better than here, I put mine away today, on the hoist to keep the tires from going square, might have to take it off while I’m working on my truck, a 75 GMC 2500 that I’m restoring now

Tim that is the color my 72 was from the factory. When I stripped it in 2013 I found it under the Ferrari Red that was on it it then and repainted it the same. I never could get used to it although yours does look very good
I got the name from an original gm paint brochure, mine is still original paint from the doors back, had to paint the fenders and hood, the rest isn’t too stock any more 😂

Got a door hung! Progress is slow but sure.
That’s golden brown, took me about 35 years to get accustom to it, now I love it!

That’s not fair, I have this to deal with

Yea, I definitely feel you pain, I put the Monte away for the winter and the G, installed the Plow on the GMC and we might just get a foot of snow Sunday, not looking forward to that.

Starting to turn, it’s almost done here, expecting snow within 2 weeks, I put my cars away last week, getting the 4X4’s ready for snow, just got a 1975 square body GMC complete with a Plow. 🇨🇦

Got customer cars out of the shop so I could get to my '71. This weekend I replaced the idler arm, pitman arm, front coil springs, front lower control arms, front shocks, front upper control arm bushings, rear coils and did an alignment. Found a set of 15X8 rally wheels earlier in the week ($150 for all 4 with centres and rings) so I put 2 on the rear to see how it looked. The front end came up 3 inches and the rear came up 2 1/2 with the new Moog coils. Hope to get to the rear control arms and bushings soon.
Wow, that’s a lot of work, amazing what new springs will do , awesome job, keep at it 👍
