well her car is ready for carlisle.....

[abodyjoe]

all it needs is a good alignment and i have to clean it up a bit... last year we put the 8 3/4 with big bolt axles and 11X2 1/2" drums on it.. this year we rebuilt the front end and put disc brakes on it and 440 torsion bars... i didn't think i would ever finish it with all the rain we have been having...actually rides nice even know it hasn't been aligned yet.... its definatley a big difference from the beat fron end that wwas in it... i thought it would be alot stiffer ride but am really happy with how it handles bumps and all now... i have to find/make some brackets so i can put a front sway bar on it now.. maybe even a rear bar down th road.....

cranked the bars up too high the first time.... looks like it has a straight axle....lol.

like the way they destroyed my yard by putting a new septic leach field in... what a mess to have to work around....

Great photos! Went through that last year and it brings back memories. At least you seem to live ina semi-rural area, in Denver you can't really work on your car outside without a hassle.
