stony Posted March 26, 2005 Author Share Posted March 26, 2005 well just general chassis stuff like where to take measurements from and where to tie into stuff. My car has been in the shop since feb 04 and i was brought there pretty much stripped with the rear suspension removed. teh floor is cut out and some of teh cage is installed and its only taken a little over a year to get that done!!!!! I havent seen it in over a month becasue i have been out of town. im going over to look at it this weekend and if it hasnt had considerabnle progress im going to take it back and try and finish it myself. I'm hoping that atleast the rear suspension is in and it is progressing well but somehow i dont think thats going to be the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5foot2 Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 assuming your fab skills are up to the job, this book is a good source of info http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0963121707/qid=1111853480/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/002-5411100-4368857?v=glance&s=books There is no cover pic on Amazon, so if your looking for it in a book store, the cover has a red third gen Camaro on it.

boodlefoof Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Check out "Chassis Engineering" by Herb Adams at your local bookstore. Gives great info about building your own chassis and suspension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
