Thanks guys! ive been workin on the control arms and springs the last couple of days and ive almost got the passenger side back together... just ran into a few problems along the way... but have the springs cut, the new bushings in on one side, new shocks next to the car along with the new shifter and clutch. The dash that I got from Doug I fixed the warping on that and it came out GREAT so I still need to put that in. However... I did manage to install a small disco ball and a "bee-otch" air freshner on the rear view mirror like the camaro in Transformers haha

Car looks great Kyle. What did you use in the trunk,turned out great 2

I will have some pics up fairly soon of the car lowered, got the passenger side done a few days ago... its very very low, probably came down about 2.5 inchs, kinda worried about clearing the fender but it sure looks sweet! as far as the trunk goes, I used a 3/4 inch piech of ply wood for the whole thing. Covered the wood in black felt, the sub box I custom cut from an old box I already had and mounted one amp and the crossovers behind the sub and one amp in front. took about two days to finish the trunk, really not too bad, just took a bunch of cardboard to make a template of the trunk and traced it onto the wood, cut it, fit it, covered it, done haha... wasnt' too bad. hopefully ill have more pics in a few days of everything, cut springs, energy suspension poly bushings, and gabrial shocks are under the front end, new dash is done, just needs installed, Zoom clutch is sittin on the living room floor haha hoping to have it done in the next 2 weeks because its going into the body shop for a lil work... gonna look freakin sweet this summer though!

Looks like my son (LTGuy) hasn't had time to post up pics of his new wheels so here they are. AR Torque Thrust M's in 17x8.
We wanted to get the wheels on first so we could see how much it needed to be lowered and will have that done before spring.
He also did a really nice job redoing the trunk.
