| I am finishing the rear spring this weekend and should have them back together by the end of the week. I use leaf spring out of a 73 hatchback to get the fenders to the top of the tires. With out using air shocks. After the rear axle is back together I will be strting on the sub frame. I have the rebuild kit and thanks to my Dad I have power disc brakes for the front. I will have more pictures up soon. | |||||||||||||||
| 7/01/03: Another update. Didn't get the axle in due to rear sway bar was on back order. I just got it today so I will be trying to install the axle this weekend. I started on the body work and replaced some metal that was rusted away. As you can see in the pictures. It is where the back window rests. I have the car up on jack stands so that I can clean underneath. | |||||||||||||||
| 7/5/03: Well things are really getting started now. It is exciting to see a project move along. This weekend we started on replacing the 1/4 panel. This is the passenger side. you can see where the rust is on the outer wheel well. I thought about replacing the panel. but there was really only a small parts that needed to be replaced. so I patched it. I got busy and forgot to take pictures of the actual repair. But you can see the welds. After sanding and welding the patch in I POR-15. the entire open area. During the week I am hoping to get the rear axle back in and maybe even the gas tank. The underneath is clean and ready to be undercoated. | |||||||||||||||
