It only took maybe an hour or so to prep it and put the resin and fiberglass cloth on, but the bodywork was alot longer. There's over a half gallon of Rage in it so between bondo-ing and block sanding probably 8-10 hrs, and it needs a few more to get it ready to paint.

I have the centers for them but they're gmc and i think they look better this way....they wont be on much longer! maybe before I park it for the winter I'll put them back on..

Re: My 86 build

[QUOTE=SS Delux;4171978]If you do end up selling em how much would you want ?[/QUOTE


SSDELUX....I dont know if you've ever been there before, but the Barrie automotive flea market is on next weekend sept 9-12, and is an awesome place to find some wheels, tires, or anything else you might ever need for your truck, car, or whatever. I'm def. going again this year!

Re: My 86 build
 

I'm gonna pass on the headers, not quite what I want, and maybe I'll find what I want next weekend...

Re: My 86 build
 

found this today when I was checking things over....
might be hard to tell, but thats the upper shock mounting bolt with the rubber bushing on the top left!

Re: My 86 build
 

.....does anyone know of a cheap, shorter replacement shock? I just need something to get me by untill I build my notch and four link set up....or should I spend the money and buy drop shocks now?

Re: My 86 build
 

still waiting on these......

Re: My 86 build
 

.........finnished work early...had some time to kill.

Re: My 86 build
 

you can run some front shocks on the rear.
Serp stuff looks NICE!!

Re: My 86 build
 

After a couple of hours with a drill and wire wheel, I painted and clear coated my serpitine set up. I forgot to take a pic of the clutch fan and alternator and all the other bolts and hardware, but its all painted and ready to go on. I might try to do that friday. I still need a a/c compressor delete pulley, water pump gaskets, and a power steering pump puller....oh and figure out how to wire up alternator.

Re: My 86 build
 

thanks...how much shorter are the fronts?...I need really short shocks for the back!

Re: My 86 build
 

they are much, much shorter....sorry i don't have the measurement, but I can get it for you in a few minutes
