    Nice work.
  2. To lower the front coil spring setup you have to effectively raise the upper A-arm. On this Mustang chassis I choose to remove material from the upper A-arm to allow the spindle to rise farther into the front wheel well which lowers the front suspension. You can see the material I removed here evidence by the notch I created in the lower surface of the arm
  3. Very impressive work Pierre.
  4. Another of my favorite tracks.
  5. I became aware of Genesis my sophomore year in high school. And Then There Were Three was released (their first album after Peter Gabriel had left). Follow You Follow Me was in heavy rotation on the radio. I bought the album and enjoyed it. You could say that is the album that changed my life except that I can’t remember when the last time I listened to itJ. It started me on lifetime appreciation of Genesis, Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins. My best friend at the time became a fan and we began exploring their back catalog together. I saw them live that same year. Each exposure only increased my enjoyment of their music. By ’82 I was in college and Peter Gabriel’s Security was released so I bought it on cassette. This is the album that changed my life. I would listen to it in my car when I traveled home for the weekend. My favorite way to listen to the album is by myself. I want to focus fully on the music with no distractions. The album starts with a slow pulse drawing me in from the first note. The album is full of emotion and intensity. And the percussion is off the chart, a key ingredient for any great album in my opinion. The opening track:
  6. Peter Gabriel - Plays Live

    Very nice Trevor.
  8. Don't recall ever seeing this box art before.
  9. I haven't built the '67 Shelby kit per se but I am currently building (2) of the chassis under '66 Mustangs. Outside of the high stance of the nose (not difficult to correct), I haven't found any issues. My projects are here:
  10. Engine donor?
  11. Looks like a great project.
  12. You need a wheel/gear puller - makes it much easier. It pushes the axle out of the wheel.
  13. Nice work TJ.
  14. I like to faster pace PG uses for Solsbury Hill in concert.
  15. The FE in the AMT '60 Ford is very nice as well as the AMT '66 Comet.

  17. Nice work. Where did you get the wheels?
  18. I'll try the modified sewing needle before I spend any money.
  19. Anyone tried these?
