So what are your plans?

Suspension?

Motor?

Brakes?

FETorino,
as far as suspension i am working on a SLA front suspension with my boss. the rear we are gonna build a 3 link set up (not a torque arm) with a watts link.
Motor wise it'll probably stay a 302 until all the suspension is done.
the car is mini tubbed right now ,so it'll hold some tire.

brakes , i'm kinda leaning toward the grand torismo kit from brembo. i've installed a few sets of these on some of the 03/04 cobra's we work on and
i really like the way they work.

the rest of the mods are some small cosmetic things that are in the rendering
but are not too noticeable. the wheels in the rendering are forgeline GA3R's

the color may change but i'll worry about that down the road.

by the way i've checked out your fastback torino build,very nice....
Paul
