Few pictures of the front end, will be building it all up this week, the magnum force lower arms are very strong, and the front sway bar is 1 1/16, should handle very well

Thanks Carl, yes the light is definately at the end of the tunnel now, bare in mind tho the car was 95% finished last May, but I wasn't happy with it so stripped it right back down and started again

Mossy it is only getting candy stripes it won't be lettered up, this is going to be a modern take on the early cars, here's a pic of my last car just for you mossy, all hand painted by Dave B's mate Craig

its strange, mark/jerry i never liked this car it had a look like it had been pulled out of a wrecking yard and you just got it and brought it the track the time i saw it i never considered it a serious contender from the smith teamsters i dont know why it just never looked right, my favourite you had was the 9 sec car it looked the bollax black and also in the met blue cracking car, dont know why you ever unloaded that one it ran the no,s and barely ever gave you any agg,

the new one will be different nice one mucker, do you not fancy that blower 7 litre srt mtr ????

The car wasn't as described when it arrived from the states Dunc hence why it got painted as it did, and it just didn't do it for me, I wanted a post car! In hindsight yes the belvedere was the car I should have kept but the offer was too good to refuse, the car wasn't for sale,
And I'd love the blown motor, and have spoke to the guy but can't really stretch to it as the paint job isn't cheap, but you get what you pay for eh
