and i mean moving the strut towers, not just using <73 components with 74 and up struts. i'm about to do this and was wondering if there's anything out there already. (yes, i'm serious)

Hi

This car had it done, they used late model struts and control arms as the arms are easily cut & shut.

Mirrors- they almost look like Vitaloni California's...but can't tell for sure.

I can't tell by the photos...the strut tower looks stock...did you say he modified it??

Hi

The towers were elongated so that the strut tops could be moved in.

thanks again steve.
that's what i'm hoping to be able to do, just toward the top of the strut tower
but with a two inch per side narrow, i may have to bring in the lower part where it meets the trunk floor(even with the skinny kerscher struts)
i've already cut out some doner towers from a '74, so i may just maul mine and insert the others(either way it's going to take a while to drill out all the spot-welds on one or the other)
