yes Johann is correct, I personally don't see the need for it as it is purely a part time toyRidgeback wrote:Good morning Mantaray
Looks very neat and you ARE going to enjoy. Just a question please .I see that you have blocked off the fan /fresh air system. What are you going to replace it with ? The inside gets very hot.
I am busy with my De Ville's system at the moment but many times thought of putting a modern air blowing system which will be more efficent .

Re: Going Kommando
Please be careful with the 'Parts Master' line of suspension components; I've used them before and wasn't real impressed with either their fitment or their longevity.mantaray wrote:as mentioned before, all the necessary components for the front suspension was acquired, I need Mercedes W108 front springs and shocks for the Chevy, can anyone assist, much appreciated.

Re: Going Kommando
Thanks for the heads-up Bear, as its a weekend ego bruiser, I ain't too worried, this car is essentially for my youngest son when he grows up (13) and my eldest son (16) wants the Mopar, I on the other hand am aiming to have a 1983 - 87 Pontiac in the next 2years
