Going up on E-Bay!!!

Any offers now?

 Looking to buy a family hot rod...55 Nomad?

The suspension was fully rebuilt with Energy Suspension bushings,and Moog hardware. Comp Engineering sub-frame conectors were also used. The car is lowered with Heidts drop spindles and rear lowering leafs. QA1 shocks all around, with adjustable coil-overs up front. The Heidts narrowed tube A-arms are high quality pieces too. Wilwood brakes all around are a welcome edition. It's down there, and should look sweet look going down the street.

A shot of the rear brakes, and both front/rears off the car. The fronts are 13" with 12" out back. I couldn't use the trick rear Wilwood hat with the internal e-brake because my 12-bolt uses c-clip eliminators. They did however, supply a mini e-brake caliper that bolts just under the main caliper.

Here are the finished brakes. I've also used the new Wilwood master cylinder with a proporsioning valve.

Due to an "unfourtunate" experience with Foose, I had to switch wheels to get the proper fitament/color/bolt pattern. These are from Raceline. Very sweet wheel, and much lighter.

BFG KDW 2's with the "flame" pattern. These tires really have some grab. 245/30/20-Front & 285/30/20-Rear

There is really nothing special about the interior other than it has been completely replaced. Sorry, no killer stereo here. The exhaust is a bit loud. Funny how Big Blocks are that way) Besides, it gets enough attention just the way it is...Thanks Officer Smith for my glove box full of tickets.

7/14/07 Just gave the car another "garage alignment". It has been settling from the new suspension install. I've also started on the front spoiler, but in this picture I have not installed the support brackets yet.

*Update* The exhaust is finally completed! After all that pain, I think it turned out sweet. It was, once again, another mod fest. This time we relocated the fuel pump, and parking brake cables. The guy who designed and welded the system is Kip Valdez with Performance Metal Works. Amazing talent brother, my hats off to you! He kept it high and tight...even with 3" duals! The Magnaflows sound awsome. Thats a Magnaflow X-pipe as well. I think its about time to give that oil pan a wipe down...

Mock up time.
Good ground clearance.
The "over the rear gear"
The, once again, relocated fuel pump. The mount is located up in the empty space near the rear end on isolators.
