Have an extra day this weekend so I am finishing off the tilt front end and going to explore more about Stimpys advice on the leaf springs
I really appreciate all the help and advice from you guys
There are only 4 sites I read on a day to day basis www.draglist.com www.dragstuff.com www.speedtalk.com www.stevesnovasite.com
Thanks again

Finished the second side of the tilt front end and also had a nice break for the rear bumper found that the brackets on the frame were in easy reach for my plastic bolts to reach so no need for any fab work
left my camera at work but will post some updates soon

well not such a great day
Had the neutral safety switch short out when I went to fire her up
then found I will need a press to get the new springs on my shocks as they are longer than the previous ones ,its also been raining all day so could not do any fibreglass work
and found my own personnal weight loss program took a dive and gained an extra 1#
so now i cant even face having a beer to cheer myself up,
oh the trials and tribulations
hope you all had a better day

aagghhhhhhhhhhh
I sprayed on two beautifull coats of electric red on my battery box so its really noticeable when you go to the trunk (in case of emergency) walked away for a minute came back to find a couple of flies draggin their way through a rapidly drying second coat my question now is do i sand them and the top layer off or clear coat the whole lot including flies as a reminder that you can always find something to smile/grimace at
