Got the rear suspension back together enough to start test fitting the rear wheels. Definitely going to be an interesting experience trying to squeeze these in the wheel wells. But spacing to the upright is perfect.

So through the use of Bobbys upper rear arms, I moved the upright to the inboard hole. Haven’t had a chance to measure what the actual camber number is yet, but it definitely brought the wheel and tire in much better. Still gonna need to massage the body a bit. Ordered some S2K fender flares. We’ll see how it all works. Hopefully by next week I’ll have a clearer picture of whats happening back there.

My little over fenders came in today. Gonna start figuring out how I want to do it exactly. The forward edge of the flare will have to be cut down, but this should do the trick as far as keeping the wheel within the body work rules.

Got the right side fender done. This side of the car got hit years and years ago, so the shape isn’t exactly the same as the other side. And there was a lot of bondo dust. But it’s on.
