hey im wayne

im new to this site, today i met Luvrv8 and he told me about the site

so heres my 74 luv

it has a custom back half from sadistic iron works, triangulated 4 link with the bags mounted on the lower bars
the frame is Z'ed 1.5 inches at the firewall, but not Z'ed in the front.. instead i sectioned the core support so the frame wouldnt show as much under the front valance.. i have some big plans for it so keep an eye out

Image

Image

i made these to triangulate my lower arms, so no more radius arms

Glad you found the site.

I was hanging out at a friends repair shop when this bagged LUV came by, I thought I knew about every LUV in the county.

I have a 4.3 in my 76 with a 200-4R trans behind it. You are welcome to come by and have a look when you want.
