GBODY GMACHINE Update with Pics

[GBodyGMachine]

Hey guys. Things have been moving rather slow. I keep running out of money so it is hard to make any real progress. I did get the rear end in though. It took a little time but it fits well and the coil overs look great too. Next I am going to put the front clip back on, thats free. Then I want to get the front brakes complete and hopefully set the car on the ground for the first time on 18's.

looks sharp.. what are you running for brakes, and what is involved in getting them on.. and, there sure is a lot you can do without breaking the bank.. ive had to learn paint and prep on account of a projetct and the budget conflicting.. :yes:

how are your front brakes comming btw?

I received an I M yesterday asking what the setup was.
I am running double adjustable upper control arms from Ebay as well as double adjustable lower control arms from Ebay. I cut out the orig spring pockets off the frame and put in my own crossmember and bracing. I made the coilover brackets for the axle out of 1/4" steel and welded them on. The Coilovers are from Strange with 200lb Hypercoil Springs. I really like them. The brakes are from SSBC and are ment for a 12 bolt from an A-body, but I made them fit.
Any other ?'s please ask.

Duece.

The rear brakes are from SSBC. The were a freebie from a friend with an a-body. I just had to modify them a little bit to make them fit correctly. Front brales are at a stand still until I purchase the Calipers and Brackets.

How is the Bu coming?

the bu is comming allong nicely... except the shop where is is recieving paint set fire to the underdash wireing, so its been there a while getting new electrics... also there will be a few things to iron out once its in my hands again, for example... rear sway bar didnt go on and i dont have a rear brake setup yet... and the LS engine swap, and turbo as you know first hand (not sure it wont hit the hood btw).. and a myriad of other things...
