I've finally decided on a plan for the superstructure. It took many hours of head scratching, but I like it a lot. It will be composed of 2 major parts, one under the car, one inside the car, and then a roll cage and crossbraces will be bolted to it. AND I get to use my tubing bender, so that will be fun. I had a change of mind this weekend on the suspension. I decided awhile ago to go with the stock strut type setup, but was talking to KW Suspensions about building a shorty version so I wouldn't have to cut strut mounting holes through the inner fender well. It was a pain in the butt, so I decided just to go with the Variant III KWs and cut the hole. With the shorty version I was worried I wouldn't have enough travel, now I'll have plenty. So they are ordered up, got some of the high grade nuts I need, and soon I'll be warming up the MIG!
