OK, not literally, but you guys know how the Snowball effect works with project cars, even ones that run? All started when a friend of mine and I were talking about A-Body tire sizes. Turns out I had the right sized already mounted on 15x7 Cop wheels. Get the backs mounted, get the car fired up and drive it around front to swap fronts.

Look over and I see it leaning over and remember the Slant Six bar a prev. owner installed. OK, thats no big deal, I'll take care of it before I mount the tires. Then I realize something. I have no tool to take the bars out so I've gotta pull the Control arms back, no big deal right? Well, yeah its not really, but....

I got to thinking, Hey, I've got a Sway Bar setup in a Slant Six K-member complete. Hey, I gotta take these LCAs off anyway, why not swap in the Sway Bar.

So, thats where I'm at now, got the 'bar arms cleaned up and the car is on jackstands. I hope to get everything swapped tomorrow, and we'll see how she handles!
 
That's cool and all but I have to wonder, if you spend all this time on these cars, do you work? I'm not trying to be an asshole, just asking a question...oh and pics would be cool too! :):)

Right now, yes, Self-Employed auto scrapper. May change in a week or so.

I'll try to get pics of the car when I'm done with the suspension. She's on jackstands right now.
 
Yea the 'ol snowball effect. Since mine got wrecked. It leaves a lot of down time, motor has to come out, brakes, suspension, etc...*gulp*
