Looks good to me! Thats the thing with coil overs, you can always change the ride height with some simple adjustments...

Yeah it was sitting about perfect until I put the engine in it LOL. Just going to tighten them up a little bit and we should be good. I did lower the back to try and match the front but they have super cheap coilovers in the back. Pretty sure they're the same ones I had on my gasser. Way too much spring

Yeah, well built stuff

Motor mounts are done. Rear control arm gussets are done. Frame trimmed and capped. Also played with bringing back the paint

There ya go, shinin' up old paint jobs again
Last week I saw a Bronco with the exact same color and graphics as Berta - thought it was you for a sec, tried to get a pic but he took an off ramp and got away - it even had almost the same weathered patina...

Hahahaha, I just can't help myself.

Dang, wish you could have gotten a pic! That would have been cool to see!
