Re: Project "Popeye"

Couple updates, no new pics yet though.

1) Put an ad on CL for a rear end and I'm going to pick up an 8.5/10-bolt camaro 3.42 posi unit tomorrow.

2) Placed an order with CPP for a TCI MII front end. I agonized over this but at the end of the day nobody could beat their price. I got this package with an air bag upgrade for a grand total of $1894:

I'm using the 2" dropped spindles and power rack. Sweet deal if you ask me, no shipping, they throw in a sway bar (nobody else does) and the prop valve, brake and ps hoses. TCI is not my first pick but who can argue with that deal?

Things are gonna start rolling (literally I hope). Next step is to order the brake system and wheels/tires. I've decided to go with Diamondback white walls.
