Stage Two - Suspension! I want to build up the suspension and brakes first - (most guys go straight to the motor). It already has the Street or Track A-arms and 620# 1" drop springs, now it’s getting Opentracker Roller Spring Perches, Opentracker Roller Idler Arm, Opentracker 1" Sway and Curved Monte Carlo Shock Tower Bars, and the 1" Shelby Drop A-Arm relocation brackets. I’ve also got to install my Street or Track Subframe Connectors (bottom pic) This oughta make a night-and-day difference in the way she turns and stops.
More Brake upgrades are in the works. _Joe, are you set up yet with SSBC?_
And if anyone was wondering where the updates have been - it’s because I’ve been _ **paying it off.** _ Probably my favorite thing you can do to a car - She’s all mine now! 🙂

Nice, payed off… Time to spend the money on some more toys…
You better be rolling in a few weeks when I get mine out!
As for SSBC, PM me the kit you were looking to get. [www.ssbrakes.com](http://www.ssbrakes.com) and I’ll talk with them. We just finished installing my brakes last night. The car will be on the ground this weekend. A few more things and it’s ready to roll! So get moving!!!

it’s in Angola… small little gas station/corner store/ice cream shop.
They usually do a cruise every Friday in the summer. It’s a good time, mostly classics and hotrods with some modern muscle.
stop on out man… bring your old mans GN 😃

They average around 80 or so cars, every Friday. It’s a chill spot. Good ice cream too.
Joe, I’ll get back to you, I need to figure out how I can reroute my clutch cable through the firewall, I don’t have any clearance for the booster. I’ll get a pic

Quick update, some new goodies came in (:snky:), and I finally got the rest of the trim pieces, especially the long chrome rocker trim back on. Almost looks like a complete car. 🙂
Excuse the camphone pics, here’s how she looked last night:
As stated, I’m looking for a good place to weld in the SFCs in the southtowns. I’d do it myself but I don’t have a lift and I want them square.
