I've got Dakota Digital in my 43 and my Camaro. I really love their stuff and SO EASY to install. Very well made.

I didn't even know they made them for the 60. Very cool.

Should be here tomorrow. But until I get the motor and transmission set I won't know. Still waiting on a backordered part from Mark's on the trans adapter. So, no idea of when I'll get to start test fitting things.

Quick morning. Finished cleaning up the 80 axles and set the 3rds in. Will build these out next week.

Still in the box all stapled up. I figure no sense in drooling over something I can't try to work with yet.

Nothing special. Just radius arms, sway bars and rear control arms ready to install.

First round of underbelly cleaning...

I don't know whose brilliant idea it was to use rubberized undercoating in the engine bay.... BUT I WANT TO KICK THEM IN THE NUTS AS HARD AS I CAN! (It was you; wasn't Chris...... HA)

Before - engine bay

In process - engine bay

95% of it is off now. Should get the engine bay sanded and paint in the next 7-10 days.

Pulling the hood and hinges tomorrow.

Spring assist hood hinges are trashed, holes were ground/ drilled out (pic to follow). Remove those and install gas struts to remedy issue.
