That's the next hurdle on the list. I thought I was going to be able to use the offset lca's but those will not clear the tire. Instead I will be cutting up my spohn arms in order to make an offset. I have a design in my head that I think will work and be plenty strong.Originally posted by bri2203 View PostI am not sure If I overlooked it or not but what are you doing for rear control arms?
Thanks for the compliments guys this is a much bigger project than what I originally thought it would be...lolLast edited by WMCCjames; March 4th, 2012, 07:07 PM.sigpicTurbo Charged LS1/T56

I know what you mean Gary...I've toiled with the idea for awhile now, finally I just said...you know they cut up 69 camaro's all day long to put in minitubs...what the hell makes my car so special. Maybe I have just been hanging out on ProTouring and Lat G too longOriginally posted by WMCC Gary View PostNot sure I'd have the guts to cut mine up like that. Great Job James!

not at all these cars are a dime a dozen and personally that is all part of hot rodding, chop it up and make it unique.Originally posted by WMCCjames View PostI know what you mean Gary...I've toiled with the idea for awhile now, finally I just said...you know they cut up 69 camaro's all day long to put in minitubs...what the hell makes my car so special.

Top shelf sir, top shelf.Originally posted by WMCCjames View PostEtch primed and seam sealed...getting close now! Just needs a top coat and undercoating in the wheel wells. Then I can reassemble and get this pig back on all fours. Its a shame to cover up those beautiful welds with seam sealer...lol

Tubs are done and most of the car is put back together. Woot! These pics were taken when the undercoat was still wet, that's why it looks glossy. Later today...pics with the car on the ground and sitting outside for the first time on the new wheels.


Here is the new bumpstop location. I'm super happy with the way this turned out. Most guys neglect putting a bumpstop back in when they do a minitub. I just cut the old one off and modified it to fit onto the inboard side of the factory framerail.
