So I guess there is some updates sooner than i thought  ;D  I ended up with a bit of free time today so i broke out the cut off wheel and the bender and went to work. I cut the old back half off because i never really liked how it looked and just started with a new idea and ran with it, I also bent up a light bar. Here's some pics.  O yea and i painted the wheels black cause i just couldn't take them being silver any longer ;D

Three years of sitting in the snow and rain and she fired up first try, after un siezing the motor of course  ;D  There was only about 6 gallons of water in it.  It doesnt even smoke suprisingly

Kind of was wondering that myself.

Im going to let it ride and see how long it lasts  ;D  With no smoke after what its been through its looking pretty good, worse case scenario it blows up and i have to build it anyway. The way i see it is it should be nice and loose so when i boost it i should be able to put more boost to her seeing the compression should be a bit lower.

Im going to cut out the bar thats right in front of the carburetor and i had some flanges made that will slide onto the tubing so i can make it bolt in and out, I should have pictures of it tommorow.

As for progress, I am in the process of bracing the front A-arms and building new shock mounts. The rear 4 link bars have been sleeved with 1 1/2" on the uppers and 1 3/4" on the bottom. I also bent the lowers and added a truss.  My FOA shocks come in tommorow   10:  I ordered 2.5 coilovers with ressies, 10" for the front and 14" for the rear.  I will add more pics tommorow.
