    So why not take some up close pictures of the car cleaned up plus a picture of the seat belt bracket to relocate the upper attach point forward above the B-pillar.

    It is a corvette color called cyber gray. It is actually 2 toned, semi gloss black on outer and the cyber gray down the center of the dash.

    The leaf springs are supposedly the right springs for the car but they are not. I have set of calvert racing mono leafs that will be installed shortly. I believe it will lower the back 3-4 inches.
