well here is a long overdue update on the build.

sorry for taking so long guys.

with the summer having come and gone and the shop being stupid busy with other builds and being away for a good month and a half it took a bit of a toll on what could be done. Also with the van being in the body shop taking care of some front end modifications we were not left with a whole lot of time.

With that being said here we go.

One of the last things I had mentioned was the fact that my partner in this project decided that he wanted to do a Front End conversion after all the work that went into getting it ready and painted. Here are some pics to help you understand.

What it looked like before the conversion right after it had been painted and came out of the body shop.

Another thing we decided to take care of in the meantime was the suspension and wheel and tire set up.

So out with the old and in with the new.

We had thought about going with a possible air ride set up

but then opted to go a different route. So we went with a full

lowering kit front and rear, we've got a bit of tweaking to do for the front

but you can get the general idea.

Also picked up a set of wheels for the ride in the process.

I love car audio so much because I will never be done. I can never win, and I will never get it finished or perfect. It always has me coming back for more, I can never get my fill of it, but I get what I need.
