Those are fair observations. I appreciate the feedback. I would like to be able to do the work myself but have neither the time, space, or talent.

Anyone have any dealings with the guys at Bruce's Rod Shop in Spring Texas? I am considering having them do my work on the suspension for the 64. I have decided to go with the Fatman Fabrications set-up in the front and the Ride-Tech 4 link in the rear. They should be able to get me in the shop with...

Take lots of pictures and post em up here. Sure it will be a good time.

Had a good time myself. I'll be glad when I'm back stateside for good so I can get to know everyone a little better. Certainly lots of knowledge in the bunch.
