    So I just had the shop order a MII style front end, it should be here on Monday. It will come complete with 12" drilled and slotted Wilwood brakes. :thumbs2: I have also been busy ordering/buying parts from fellow members (thanks guys!). I will put up some pics when they start to cut up the car to install the front end.

    They finally began the disassembly on the car and have cut out the shock towers for the new suspension.

    How far are you going with this car? If you are in it for the long haul I recommend getting it blasted. You finished product will look better and it will be easy to work in and around.
