Beautiful car. I hope my springs will be right. I was confused by all the opinions I was reading so I just called Fusick and give them the options of my car and they sent me a set. Fusick assures me they they will sit at the factory ride height.

Fusick is great, and were I go first for parts usually. They get their springs from ESPO. I have a set of them, they sat about an inch higher than these (not bad, but I wanted the lower look, and honestly wish this were about a half inch lower still. Let me know, I'm curious how they sit. Regardless the options, the rear of the car isn't a big difference, the front is bit (and I'm no pro at this, but sure have learned a lot).

Thanks for the compliment, this project seems to NEVER end, but I'm actually enjoy some of this stuff... decals, things like that, the final steps are sweet, LOL

Actually it needs a good wash and polish... Next week! LOL
Car sat in the garage so long, I need to clean all the grime off the undercarriage.
Question, under your drip edge (each side) the little bit with the body color. They guy painted mine, but didn't seam seal it, looks rough and unfinished. I'm going to seal it and shoot some seibring yellow single stage (ordered from a place that mixes it).
How's yours (or anyone else's) look?
If you can snap a picture, post or send it. It's a small area, but I'm not sure if these were sealed, I'd bet yes.
thanks!
