/6 conversion- installed some Pelican parts
As some of you know I'm doing a /6 conversion to a 75 chassis. For the past year I've been concentrating on chassis stiffening and getting the underside of the car cleaned up and painted. Well yesterday I started installing parts what a great feeling
 I have converted to 5 lug on all four corners and yesterday I installed the following:rear 911 brake rotors and calipers M style front 911 Boge struts,rotors and M calipers 19mm thru body front sway bar front A arms with Elephant Racing polybronze bushings rear Elephant Racing polybronze bushings and Koni shocks with 140lb. springs To say the least I was busy  I even installed Fuchs front and rear to see how they look with the GT metal flares and she looks good. Sorry no pics as I type this as I'm getting ready to take the wife out for breakfast I'll try to post pics later. It feels sooooooo good to start putting parts back on. Happy mothersday

Looks good! Are you going to carb it or keep the FI?....hopefully your pics will kick me in the butt to begin mine. I've got all the parts already..I just need to yank out that 1.8l 4 banger and start assembling!

Either that, or some of the collars that go around the tensioner.
