Re: Restomod 72 K10 "Good Memories"

Have the axle in place. As thought it was to far forward. Moving it back shortened the links so I moved the mounts back 6 1/2". Link mounts are right on the trans crossmember now. Welded up the unused holes. Links, panhard and tierod are made. A lot more work than it looks like. Cutting pipe and drilling for plug welds takes time. Everything is just tacked together right now incase I need to make changes. Installed ported PSC steering box and brace. Pitman arm and drag link parts are on order. Need to get accessory drive on motor and a/c box installed to start on shock mounts.
Decided to use my original core support as I will be cutting a cold air intake through it. Took to body shop and pounded the damage out. Still need to clean and paint. Pleased with the progress. Working tomorrow so will not get back to it until next week.
