Nice progress.

Whats good is without the leaf springs there you'll have room to move the tailpipe exits outward towards the wheels if you wanted to.

I think I mentioned it before (and I'm sure you have more experience in this area then I do),
but you might want to sight down the axle tubes inside to see if there was any tube movement post welding.

The thin M20 tubes moved on me just welding the perches and stitching it to the pumpkin.

Bummer. That is one of the things we keep a very close eye on. Can happen way too easy.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Is your hood stripe painted on or did you order it.

That is exactly how I want my 1971 Javelin SST.

Very Nice Car!

The hood stripe on the Javelin is a vinyl kit. Any of the AMC vendors like Kennedy or APD carry them. The car belongs to one of the local club members. We have been doing ongoing upgrades on it for him for several years now. Thanks for the kind words.
