Joe, looking real good!  Did you have enough clearance between the front fenders and your suspension?

not much, changed the top A arms to tubular and left the camber 1 degree out to clear.

got her to the first car guys get together, since I've had her. Feels good to get to drive her around. Still some body work and tinkering to do.

Has to be a great feeling! Car sits nice and looks great.
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn

Yellowbeard,
Congrats on taking it out to the first car guys event.  It takes a lot of work just to get it to that point.  You should be proud, it looks great!
