That's one nice mockup. Looking forward to you having bagged it. It's a shame that airride isn't allowed on german streets as far as it's not stock, neither selfmade nor bought. You need paperwork for every shit you alter at/in/around/on your car.
If I'd ever move to the states, then for slamming all the classic german cars we can't slam here in germany.
I especially love your time period correctness. I'm looking forward to the result.
Great work, keep on!

thanks a lot man.
and air ride is illegal here as well, at least the state I live in here. They have pretty strict auto laws here.
So you have to tip toe around unless you're trying to get tickets.

what are you gonna do with that third spring they put in the rear end? delete it entirely, or does it even limit your travel?

I left it in there, aired out the actual perches and mounts for that spring are right up into the floor, so Im just leaving it.
It sits where I want it to, so Im definitely not cutting anything up in it.

Im trying to keep everything as original as possible for resale potential, nothing was cut out for the bag install.

Can't wait to see this thing on the ground...Keep it up man!

that's awesome man.
yea the Hydrak transmission that was originally in it is pretty rare now as well, they were all converted.
I made sure to find another same year same model parts car so I wasn't altering the car in any way. It still came out of Stuttgart with that very 4spd standard on the column.
But now it's reliability is through the roof haha.

Im not sure what's going on at noon on saturday yet but definitely wave me down man! I'll be on the strip haha.

We have a big group of gentlemen getting together either friday or saturday night on the strip somewhere, formal attire gentlemen, you won't miss us!

oh heck yes man. This year is going to be awesome, so many big things.

hahahahaha.

I especially love the exploding head shot from Scanners. One of my favorite movies!
