Finally got some rolling stock for car. Bought front wheels,tires and spindles for 300,rear wheels 500 and tires for 150. See I can do the shopping thing,DON'T TELL THE WIFE. Waiting for axles to arrive wensday.I have rearend housing but thanks toNeil and Parks site I know I can build it lighter about 20 lbs lighter. So now waiting on some moly plate to build new rearend housing. Fortunately I only had about 25 bucks in materials in first housing hours of work,never mind. Still only 200 in second housing and for 20 lbs off rear of car I will do it now,if not I would have to redo it anyway.

Finally got some rear wheels and slicks on car. I would have rearend finished since all new axles and brakes arrived except dang Parks.  Looking at his moly housing ad doing some math seems I can build new one and shve 18 yo 22 lbs off car,so original design is trashed for while and I have moly plate on the way.
