now that i have had sleep. its a 77 luv 2wd. i dont have pictures right now. the car was acquired through trades and repayments. kind of a weird situation. anyway .. we intend to keep it all original and only fix whats needed. other than the air-ride of course. but stock wheels, cracked dash, faded paint, etc etc.

i was wondering if there would be measurements of the distance between frame rails around the spare tire area. the gas tank needs to be cleaned and or replaced. so from the start im just gonna run a fuel cell. for future clearance issues with the 'bags. but im sure someone here has installed one in that general area so please PM or post up what size you used.

also .. i need a drivers side door glass. im gonna try and call the shop i use because last night when i was at my buddys house cleaning out the garage i noticed the windshield was cracked right in front of the driver so that will fail inspection .. i totally forgot it was like that. if i cant get it local or have it shipped in through the glass shop i use ... is there a good source that you all know of?

ill try and get a few pictures later today.

thanks for the welcomes so far

kyle

The windshields are still available through most local glass companies...
