Default Looking good!

Dear Colin,

I can "feel your pain" putting a body back together - it does take some patience as well as being able to see the complete picture - even though at times, the "Frankenstein look" makes you wonder if it will ever look good again. As you have commented, fiberglass is very forgiving - repairing aluminum would take a whole new set of skills or more likely, a hugh stash of cash. Glad to see you are ready for the paint booth.

Regarding the four link, over the winter I replaced some of heim joints - the one in the wishbone was somewhat tired (i.e., loose) - now that I have replaced this joint, I go straight as an arrow. I have not yet "aired it out", simply focusing on hitting the 8.90 index. Hopefully in one of the next few weekends I can give you an all out timeslip - just to give you a target to beat - ha!

Rockey
