I am thinking of going the Pro Touring route with my build.

Anyone have any g3 pics of this style or any other pics of awesome g3 builds. Doesn't necessarily have to be a Chevelle! Just getting ideas.

pro touring is a good plan!
IMHO any plan that involves actually using the gas pedal is a good build.

In another thread we talked about upper and lower control arms. A mechanic buddy of mine has a Hollander interchange book. He said the the 70-79 f body control arm are listed to interchange with ours. I don't know if this is common knowledge, or just news to me. Id think that would open the possibility of using the aftermarket tubular a arms for the f on ours? Definitely a pro tour mod

What size wheels and tires are you using?

Have you done a drop?

What springs and shocks?

I am trying to find out exactly what to do to get the stance I want without all of the trial and error. Can't buy two or three sets of springs and shocks and drop spindles until I get what I want. Has to be a one time thing for me.
