Reaper,

For reference- I have 600/800 lb coilovers with no t-bars and I love the ride. It's firm at low speeds, but once the speeds rise it really settles in nicely- not uncomfortable at all.

Great build and congrats on "finishing" it.

Jim

Thanks for the kind words guys - she's been a hoot to build and the best chapters lay ahead.

Congrats again on getting that project done. Simply awesome!

^^ Looks like a real heart breaker nothing like a clean silver example to really set off the curves

Forgot to post the guy who hitched a ride from North Carolina...guess the radar cross section is pretty low:
