Finally finished installing Wilwood 4 piston rear disc brakes. Took a few attempts and ordering several additional parts to get everything connected and aligned.

Driveshaft is new too

Uh-Oh better get Maaco. Should I try a top of the line paint job in Basecoat Clearcoat from Sherwin-Williams Ultra 7000 base and CC950 Clear? Let the debate begin...

From the beginning through the restoration process... she's finally ready to get sprayed.

Before and after progress, all working parts will be cosmetically restored and reused.

Replaced engine & transmission pans with black finned aluminum. Fixes leaks and looks good. Then checked injectors and found 5 out of 8 were dripping, poor spray pattern or would not stop spraying. So new Bosch style injectors. RUNS PERFECT.

Installed fuel line and rear end cover and filled, with Royal Purple. Still need to run vent/gas tank purge line, probably on right/passenger side

Its almost ready for paint. To spray or not to spray. That is the question. Should I have a body shop do it or not...

Should I upgrade the stock sway bar, I restored them and changed bushings to urethane.

Running a Pypes H bomb stainless steel exhaust system. Got back half installed, still need some tweaking but its 90% done. Classic dual tips are a must.

Went with the Pypes system with the Race Pro stainless steel mufflers. Started at the headers so I could get the H-pipe perfectly centered under the car. I like using a 6 inch stainless flex pipe because I always get my systems fitting really tight so this allows a little wiggle to remove stress from the headers.

Installed Bilstein front shocks. Could only find 2 of the original nut-clips... the aftermarket clips didn't hold any torque

BRAKES - Started by cleaning and restoring spindle. Then basically replaced everything, lol. New axles in rear-end too

Time to get back on my project. Doing front brakes... went with Wilwood 6 piston corvette style

Besides the above, the fuel lines were flushed and new fuel filter was installed.

What a mess this interior, worst I ever seen. But not impossible, looking to get it in mint condition. DIY of course

Engine bay restoration using single stage nason urethane.

Been thinking about building one from scratch with a VIN and title... for Street use, I already have an LS7 or get a 632 crate engine... thoughts???

PS maybe manual trans T56 magnum
