Hotchkis suspension in
well it took me most of the day in hot **** weather but i almost have everything buttoned up. i just have to torque doen the lower bolts for the LCA's, the shocks, and hook up the brakeline and the emergancy cables, then i should be done so i can move the car to my house and start the rebuild of my 327 and the G-forse T-5.
it sucked ebcause i was dripping sweat because it was so hot and i did everything my self, so i ended up having the sway bar over the rear end first, having to take out the rear end again and put the sway bar back under the rear, so i learned alot, it was fun.







there ya go. cant wait to see how she acts off the line now, i just have to get started on rebuilding the 327 now, then save up some cash for the g-forese kit for my t-5.
