Back on topic...I like how you're painting the wheelwells too...you really do want a complete job. Nice work.

Jon, they are Fabcar arms which have seen a lot of use (Cervelli's Technodyne car, then dmoffitt's, now mine). Glad to hear the bolts finally got there, I've been having issues with my local UPS lately. V2, dont worry about it, yes, I REALLY want this to be a complete job so when the new turbo motor is done I can just swap it in and be good to go.

Mike - I'm sure your'e all over this , but have you considered getting new ball joint pins and monoballs for the Fabcars? They have seen a lot of hard use. Also, I believe JLockton has longer pins for the Fabcars to correct the geometry if you are interested.

Another small update, though I'm not sure why I continually post "Small update" they all are small picture wise despite the hours upon hours I spend in the garage. heh.
Anyway...

Stripped out wheel well, with the 4 studs remaining to mount the fender liner (which I havent used in years).
![](http://www.mturck.com/944/Jan07/DSC7684.jpg)
So I cut all the studs off and grinded them metal fender well down flush.
![](http://www.mturck.com/944/Jan07/DSC7687.jpg)
Ready to paint.

A HUGE step forward.
![](http://www.mturck.com/944/Jan07/DSC7717.jpg)
The 968 brake scoops Ive been using in conjunction with the big ducts to the hats. Need to grab some new hardware and put those on tomorrow.
![](http://www.mturck.com/944/Jan07/DSC7713.jpg)
Passangers side, painted but waiting to dry.
Tomorrow I'll be installing the steering rack, passangers suspension, and front sway. Hoping to also pull the dash and start rewiring and maybe finish stripping undercoating in the rear. Big list, let's see how much I actually get done.

I love your thread, and the project... but I have to ask: do you have a day job? Where do you get all of this time?
It takes me a week just to get ready for a project!
