"Hats off" to you with that clean under-carriage. Where are you located? Is it a "daily-driver?" And if you don't mind saying, how much (ball-park figure) did you spend on rebuilding the whole rear set-up? It looks great and I'm sure it rides nice and tight, nothing like the feeling of a good tight suspension. You do a great job of keeping it clean, as alot of the 'Vettes here on the site.

Hey 714, that does look great. I have done the same rebuild and upgrade on my '76. I'd like to post some pics also.I alsotold my wife how good it will look to me or whoever when the oil is being changed and you are under the car. She doesn't get it either. Good luck with the front, I also did that. I slightly regret not going with a frontmono leafspring though. Might upgtrade down the road.
