I got back on the suspension today. I painted the parts to match the body. I did not like the kit springs so I made my own for the front and rear using wire rod. The mounts are made of srene and aluminun tube. After painting the rear suspension I added some brake line and attached the new springs. The new mounts will attach to the chassis and the springs will rest on them. Alex. [     |

Pretty slick work on the suspension mods Alex. Those new springs look great.

Not much progress lately. I modified the front suspension some from my original plan. Pics later. I haven't been able to work on this one much in the last few weeks because of my job.

It seems like I'm all over the place on this one. I filled in the trunk floor with sheet styrene were the gas tank mold was. I made the sub and amp housings from thinner styrene. The resin amps and the subs will fit perfectly. Alex.    |

Sorry Bobby, I haven't worked on this one since May. I built the F150 and haven't done anything since. My wife even asked me when I was going to start building again.

I've really shelved this one. I stopped building on it to complete my Ford box stock contest build back in May and haven't started back to building since. Iwant to finish it by the end of Nov.
