May want to size those down a bit, man. Kind of difficult to look at when they're all that big.

dbssr1212

i posted them on another forum and they weren't as big?

looks like you're making some real progress there. what are the plans for the car? restoration?

dbssr1212

well yea sort of

im gonna have to cut out the rockers and replace them soon
were sand blasting soon

im going to repair the body completely back to good shape
rewire it
and get rid of the rats nest a little better
new gauge set up interior and exterior will be cleaned up and painted

and after a while of looking for a bumper idea to change it up without trashing the SA look
ive changed mine a little bit =]
no molding, no holes, and the dip where the molding is well i filled it in just a little

so its gonna be somewhat restoring it to stock
but im gonna change it up a little like no moldings
clean my rims up
the paint color is not your usual SA color
its one of our harder to make custom colors but its not flashy or anything
its almost like a plum but not that dark and not shiney or anything
and then ive made the decals

even had an extra to put on my wall haha

but im learning on that

took off my first carb the other day on my parts car =]
the haynes manual helps
