Fd work! Pictures!

Over the past few days I completly rebuilt the front end of this car. The subframe was droped, replaced, mounts fixed, and body pannel somewhat worked on. It still needs work but its heck of alot better off then it was!
Cleaned it up and got it ready for the tire shop. Its getting its 4 wheel alingment saturday hopefully.

Where are you going to get it aligned? I asked and it sounds like firestone will do a lifetime on alignment.

I still need to take mine in to get it redone. I got it done at schwabies against my better judgment, and asked specifically for a strait wheel (as if I should have to ask) didn’t even get that right, and the car pulls slightly to the left. Need to get to a reputable shop when I get time.

Are you going with stock alignment or something a little more aggressive?
