Do you have any pics of the finished rear suspension? I remember way back in the day when you first posted some. Wasn't it your uncle who built Class 7 trucks that helped you design it? Love to see some suspension pr0n.

We will have some updated underside pics this coming weekend. I had to order heavier springs all the way around for it, and they should be here Thursday. We'll throw her on the lift, and get things dialed in.

Yep, they are now building a trophy truck...I'll sneek some shots of that to.

That is one of the best looking stangs that i have seen in a while. All you see now is how much stuff you can stuff on one. Very clean. great looking car.

DolFan,

Good to see you back around here. Your car looks great! I love the chrome blackout treatment. Please post some more pictures and show us your finished custom suspension work.

That is sweet Dolfan! Can I suggest adding the front lip to nail the stance ? Post up more pics if you got 'em!

I'll get some more shots up after this weekend. The rear main has to be changed (motor sat too long I guess) and I am having some problems with the third member making noise. Anyway, up on the lift it goes on Saturday, and hopefully by the end of the weekend it should be dialed in.

So hang tight for more pics.

Looks great! I can't believe you spent 6 years though just to sell it in the end.

Congrats on finishing but I am puzzled why you want to sell now. Another project in the works? As for me, I hit a slight speed bump in finishing mine. Except replace speed bump with guard rail and you get a better idea. The South may not rise again but my car will. It is only a matter of money.

So...any pics? If you can, post both of the car and the Trophy Truck. I think it would be interesting to compare the designs of the two.
