We need to be friends. I can tear a car to the frame rails and rebuild it. I can weld anything you need welded. But I am TERRIBLE at body work and painting. That is art. Looks great.

I love building engines, fabricating, doing custom suspension. I managed to keep this particular skillset a secret for eight years, lol. But after we hired n fired 3 ****tard "painters" in a row i got tired of it and started doing em.
Curse of being "head mechanic" at a mom n pop resto shop.
Translation... I do EVERYTHING.
It can be a bit much sometimes.

Thanks for posting your process. That's a lot of work but the results were worth it.
Maybe you can teach me too!

What's it like with 3.07s and 30s? I've never run any tire bigger than a 235/75R15 with those gears. Now, I find myself looking at 245/75R16s and 31x10.5s while trying to convince myself it won't be that bad...

I dig it, cruises good on the hwy, decent acceleration. 31s would be a bit much, especially with mine being a stick.

Ok i guess its update time.
Woohoo, lol, cupholders that don't rob me of a functional Ebrake.
New calipers.
And the exterior is nearly done for now. Got the lower section bedlined, matte black badging, and finally got my front bumper.
