Underside....functional side scoops,frame connectors and tucked away in there is a Boss/CJ rear crossmember for the staggered rear shocks.I make my own adjustable traction master style bars and you can see my front mounts.

Not going to post to many pictures on the web till I am finished...but here is the engine less engine bay.The aluminum and stainless stuff is mine.The aluminum parts were all ceramic coated and then I altered the finish on them to dull them down...
Funny mount in the lower right is the lower mount for the torque arm I have on the engineVacuum hoses are for the tilt away steering and the car has all the oem heater delete stuff.

Looking nice!
The neatest piece I see in that engine compartment is that funny little bracket on the frame rail, just below the master cylinder. THREE pedals...yeehaw!

Thanks...its been a 3 pedal car since the summer of 1979...I didn't quite make it home one night after a night at the bar.The little 302 that was in it survived but the C-4 didn't..I did eventually kill the 302 and the 8" rear.All good memories....
