Beautiful!

As for the height, my T/A was the same way with its original springs when I reinstalled them. Until you drive it and give the suspension some real world travel up and down, it wont settle down to its correct right height.

Awesome car Dana, it has come along way from the way it was when you scored it!
Great Work Rick &amp; Annie!

PS Rick, Nice job on the kudo's for Annie.

You guys saw these pics before I did. Freak'n incredible. If this car were alive it would be indebted for life to Rick and Annie for putting it back in it's Glory! I can't even tell you how much they threw themselves into this endeavor. I found the car and scrounged parts and spent late nights on the phone with Rick discussing the weirdest details, but they are the ones that did all the work on this one. We also had help with parts and info from members here like Dave Lindsley, Ed Montini, Brian Henderson, Charley and Marlin just to name a few. Can't wait to get to MCACN and sit in that car. Just got home from the USC/Stanford game and I am spent, that darn Andrew Luck. Good night.

car looks great , nice job

one very minor thing I notice on the picture of the tail

In one of the original 68 Yenko photos, the SS was blacked out on the gas cap.. Don't know if all the 68s were done that way but Yenko did remove the SS emblems and makes sense that the gas cap would be painted black.

it looks kind of cluttered with the white SS emblem and the 2 Yenko emblems on the tail.
