On a side note.....
I was helping the shop that painted that car (theres no doubt that kid can paint) bag an old Belair. I had a chance to look at it up close and that thing is hacked together. The lambo doors looked like they where welded with a tool truck special flux welder. Then to make it worse they slobbed rtv all over the welds to try and clean it up. The upper control arms are maxed out, they are about an 1/8" from contact with the frame. Whoever lengthend the tie rod adjusters must have cut them in half and JB welded them back together, or so it looked. The rear is the same, maxed out with no upper or lower arms to correct the massive angle in the U joint.

All in all there are different tastes in the automotive world when done RIGHT. That thing is a hazard to itself and other drivers and is the reason they should bring back safety inspections at the least. Oh well what can you do?
