Looking good Darrin, are you going to have it together for the run at the end of september??

Sat Sep 08, 2007 1:13 pm

I stopped by his house last night to check out the ride. Everything looks really good, but it may be a tall order getting it running in three weeks. He will have to haul ass to get it done.

So what are you waiting for, Darren?! 8) Hurry up!!!

Are you using the stock spring plates and not the torsion eliminators?

Wed Oct 10, 2007 2:54 pm

Looks like it eh? I'm doing the same thing, just to shave some $$ from the project. I'll build a pair of tubed ones eventually, but for now I just cut and welded mine shorter.

Fri Apr 18, 2008 10:06 pm

I am coming over to "borrow" those spindles... oh, and the brakes. Okay, the tie rods, too. I will give them back later. I promise!!! :wink: :wink: :lol:

Sat Apr 19, 2008 8:05 pm

hopefully ill get the shocks soon,and get all this on before the classic in june,got the moho back today ,so im looking for a trip to somewhere before the car is tore down,maybe a ow trip for some sight seeing,still have the stocker clutch for now.

Holy front end Batman! Nice stuff there, I hope they gave you a good deal for such a purchase. I'll be waiting to see how the spindles and arms work out.

Sun Sep 06, 2009 11:06 pm

finally getting to the front end,soon as there some progress ill try to get pics up,no updates in over a year,but the car did see dirt back in april,the delay can be blamed on the jeep i bought last year,and acouple more guns for the collection.

Mon Nov 23, 2009 10:42 pm

its getting closer,need shocks,trying to find a deal.
theres a few pics up on my facebook page.
