I just bought a second Laguna. Please check it out.
Total frame off restoration of this unique and rare beauty done by myself and 14 year old son in our garage. Started in July of 2005 we are currently still stripping the vehicle. (darn work and school keep getting in the way). We hope to finish by spring of 2008. My son needs to do brake torques in front of his high school before he graduates.
We can't find a good How-to book on doing a total frame off restoration. We also are having problems finding a good after market parts dealer with a good selection of parts for 73 - 77 Chevelles. We have a very limited budget and big plans.
We are documenting all our work with a list of suppliers, the parts we used and the advice we aquired.
We welcome any advice with any part of this project. We also welcome anybody to come come give us a hand. (If you see Chip Foose, tell him that he can't help and to leave us alone.)
Just went to Edmonton Alberta to check out Air Ride shocks at Blak Market Wheels. I'm going to be installing them forsure.
Keep up to date
Martin in San Antonio has been a wealth of help and information. Check out his '76 Laguna on CarDomain.
