Default Re: Chevelle updates

Maybe today or tomorrow, I don't know. Yesterday I found a few more minor mechanical issues with the car that need to be addressed before I can get it out for a drive, and it'll take several hours (at least) to get them squared away. No surprises there though, that's why you <span style="font-weight: bold">always</span> &quot;nut &amp; bolt&quot; a new build like this.

That will have to wait for now though as I have several carbs that came in late last week that I need to get into process over the weekend.

I did get the (temporary) coil spring spacers in the LF spring, now the car sits within 1/16&quot; of level at the front and 1/8&quot; at the rear. I plan on replacing the front springs next spring (pardon the redundant pun) so that <span style="font-style: italic">should</span> negate the need for the spacers. Once that's done it's off to the alignment shop for the final alignment.

I'll try to get some more pics and a more detailed update posted up a.s.a.p.
