3/30/2025 – New Parts on their way!

Spent some time in the garage taking inventory on stuff. Still need to order a few other things, but this is a start. Trying to focus on a few key items that have been difficult to source and\or low inventory as well as before the costs go up anymore as is forecasted.

These items are on their way:

Ordered a new set of dust shields to go along with my other front suspension parts. Found some Trunk Spatter paint on eBay. Eastwood no longer has any and it has been difficult to find. This isn’t a spray can, but I still have a small area to touch-up on my trunk. Also ordered a new spindle set which should work with my new Wilwood front disc brakes. Otherwise I would have to modify the existing OEM spindles.

5/25/2025 – status update

I finally received my Hotchkis rear shocks and now have the complete rear suspension kit.  I hope to get out to the garage this weekend to spend some time on my 12-bolt rebuild.  I have also ordered the front Hotchkis suspension kit and the only item pending on that is the front sway bar.  I also ordered the front undrilled disc brakes from Wilwood.  I need to review and get a few smaller purchases for the front suspension before tackling that after the 12-bolt and rear suspension is done!

Edit: actually, it sounds like the front sway bar may be included in this shipment!  So I will soon have the complete front kit!
