Re: Who's Modding this winter?
 
It took all summer but I finally have ready:
- 1000lb front spring
- 500lb rear spring
- 32mm hollow front bar
- revalved Penskes

While apart for above I'll be going out for Delrin LCA bushings.

On the fence whether I should bite the bullet and get the Guldstrand upper arms and do those at the same time.

Meanwhile hope to pull some weight out and maybe try the bias spring or just go to the Camaro master cylinder I picked up a while back.

And then there's re-doing the exhaust, pulling the plenum/secondaries/PCV setup etc.

Here's to next season (this year was a bust).

EX5023 - interior and final tuning
91-95 Rear bumper moldings at the mold maker
Widening my Callaway Kit
53-55 Tailshaft housing at the foundry for repro's
Three frame-off restorations going on as well.

Hope the 49th Street Rockers are still on your scope, Brett !

Actually, they are. As soon as this 74 is done at the end of the month I will be doing nothing but fiberglass work and bodywork. It'll be a messy six to eight week period.

While getting a 54 ready to paint, I'll do the fiberglass work for a few projects. The rockers are one of the projects. The new part of the shop will hate me and put up a tough fight for being a dusty, dirty mess. I just got it cleaned up and de-dusted.

Are you still replacing the Eradi-speed rotors his Winter? My car is begging for new, fancy rotors.

Let me know when the time comes. I have absolutely no fiberglass skills but I can sure help with grunt work and clean up.

Sure hope to. Still need to get the hats over to Carerra for PC but the decelerators coming off for the eradispeeds are yours when I get it done if you want them.
But they aren't so fancy!

I simply cannot bring myself to mod my perfect Z, so started negotiating for a '99 FRC with 30K miles. If I can get the price, it will become the hot rod....thinking big-time engine mods plus a big rear gear...I just love the FRC's....
