That's a really cool setup you got. I love the idea of the fuselage for a garage. :twothumbsup:

moving along inch by inch.
moved the front spring mounts in 1 inch

1st pic- inner bolt are longer to put a nut on.
I cut some 1/4" wall tubing, ground the angle brace until the sleeve sat against the flat.
then welded the sleeve to the flat and angle brace
I'll fill the original holes, when I take it back apart for paint prep.
added a 5th bolt,, 

I've moded 6 darts, this is the first Cuda,
splayed frame rails is different for me.
made some frame connectors.
at least the wheel tubs are large enough> maybe... tried a 26 x 12.5
gonna go with a 325 x 60 -15

next project is move the sway bar mounts 1 inch.

not much to report. just sanding and sanding

lucky, I opened the box as soon as it arrived.
The trunk lid, had a rough ride, the box showed no external damage.
one call, got another on the way, only it will be the middle of may before it ships
