A late introduction

I finally got enough done to my car to get it out of the garage and take a photo as an introduction. The information here has allowed me to install the quarter windows in 1 try on one side and 3 tries on the other side! Windshield and rear glass, not a problem thanks to Pelican BBS.

So after ridding the car of rust on the hood, cowl and a spot the fender, replacing the seats, headliner, repainting doors and a few other minor tasks; I am now ready to start on drivability issues. I already see the info I need for swapping the Bilsteins and tweaking my idle. Thanks for all of the info, all of the parts from Pelican and the misc parts from Pelicanites.

I find now that when I start a new project or get stuck I search Pelican first, Bentley second.

While I am posting, what do you think of the ride height? Seems like a low-rider Porsche. I can feel every pebble on the road, so I am hoping the new inserts will correct that and raise the ride height a bit.

Thanks,
Ken

Ride height looks fine, but the inserts aren't going to hurt anything. They look a lot better at euro height IMO. Ignore the scraping sound, it's just your tow hooks.

Ride height is good, but where is the rear of your car!?

Seriously, though, nice ride
