Snow finally melted off enough to move the Datsun to the basement and the ghia out to the garage. Work will come to a hault on the Datsun for a while until the ghia is ready to run. We got the left rear lowered nearly 2inches last night and will work on the other three corners this weekend. Front will be getting air sleeves and the torsion bars removed which should get it 3inches lower when bottomed out. Should be interesting.

This is the near finished picture of the strut tower. Roof hieght is around 45"! Dad can't get enough of it. We sat with big shit eating grins on our faces for an hour looking at the car Sunday. Oh yea did I mention 8" of snow SUCKS ASS!

Cosworth Vega that is the current record holder in the class we plan on running the Ghia in this year at speed week. 150mph+ is the magic number.

Turned the tabs and mounts off the lower legs, bike is coming together slowly

Datsun is about ready to set its feet on the ground. Housing should be finished up this weekend and steering rack is on its way. Once it is off the frame table we will start on the Ghia which should be equally as low and cool when its all said and done.
