back on the trailer, couldnt get the front end
alighned,evidently the frame is slightly rolled on
the drivers side. to the frame shop we go. its not off
by much,shouldn't be a big deal.just another setback, but
it wasn't unexpected .

Sorry dude, it's always something.

That front end / wheel opening issue can really only be addressed by bodywork; you can use an adjustable coil over to get it down a ways, but it's the way the front end was made that makes the wheel arch so high off the tire.

I'm cutting mine off and reworking them to get more of a factory look.

Nice work; it's good to see some of these getting back on the road.

Great news ,frame shop says frame not bent,
they flipped over the shafts on upper control arms,
now we go to the premier front end shop in the area.
which by the way are lifetime friends of mine, but
halfway across state.!!!

would you be kind enough to tell me the wheel tire combo, sizes , offset you are running? Those wheels look just about perfect on that car.
