Re: New Guy in San Diego / Caliente
Update: I found that shock top/bracket so now she's all dialed-in mechanically. Running well (fast!) and looking pretty decent in fresh flat matte paint. Thanks, Guys.

No, I'm not going to tub it. The prior owner was going to but he only got as far as cutting out the fender wells. I now have to fix what he messed up. Or I'll just find & install a back seat & ignore the issue altogether. I fix a lot of problems that way!
