Rick, it looks great. Now you need to lower it a bit and it'll be just right.

Thanks, it just cam off the lift so, things may settle out a bit. But we did snatch a few hundred pounds off of it. It will be lowered once we have it all back together.

the car lost the left and right outer rocker covers, steel hood,alloy bumpers, and lower steel valances and no sound deadning or carpets . my fiberglass parts are made in the spirit of lightweight, thick parts may last longer, but weigh just as much as the replaced steel. As rick mentions, the car came off the lift and has no bouncing, i lowered the car last year, and I am sure the b4/ after pictures will show the RH was euro Hght and after shedding pounds needs to be adjusted again!. The hood maintains the late hood latch location, light box/horn grille/fender extension are left and right bolt ons. Front bumper is a bolt on, minor modifiactions are made to the SC windshield washer bottle, heat it, deform one corner, reinstall. rear bumper neccistates removal of the rear reflector/and box and is a bolt on from there. The cool factor on the front end backdate that I created is NO CUTTING/WELDING, all bolt on, with all existing hardware,stock late short hood latches and locations, no holes drilled, and you can return to short hood/impact bumpers later with no modifications. this was a bare metal repaint to boot in petrol blue, all lids, fillers, bumpers, doors removed and painted seperatley, no tape lines...Yeah I like it , looks so good my RSA is next to receive the treatment, if I had the time to work on my own cars!!. complete bolt on backdate package now available!!! check the Ultimate b/d thread for pre paint pictures.
