#1 71 XKE build.

Post by ghostbear777 » Fri Mar 29, 2013 4:16 am

so i gotta put this pile of parts back together, i have everything and the car ran before hand, badly but it moved under its own power. the car is fresh back from paint ready to go. thing is im coming from a german car background restoration wise, and beating the crap out of bmw M3's, and yeah.... this thing seems built by good intentions an happy thoughts, not crazy OCD mathtard. its a cool car none the less, just needs to be unbroke, an as it sits its very broken.

said part pile:

You might want to take a look at the front torsion bar settings, it seems like the front ride height is a little low looking at the wishbones.

its currently sitting without torsion bars instaled and resting on the bump stops of the koni shocks, there vintage koni's in need of rebuilding anyway to i dont care at the moment. i did however invest in the adjustable reaction plate from XK's unlimited.
