Well, I figured this was a good time to start this thread on Don's behalf since he is getting ready to get on a plane in Baltimore to head this way. I will create a pic gallery to go along with this thread so updates can be given. Plan for Sat is to get his buggy over on the slab and on stands so he can work while he is off during the next few weeks. I think he has wheels and rear axle to start with, then a trip to San Antonio will be taking place sometime to get additional parts. A full list that can be updated and corrected will come  Yet another one begins

With a HUGE thanks to Sam, we made the trip to SA and Austin and picked up the D60 front axle, seats, harnesses, and 42" Rockers yesterday. Took today off to adjust to the cold. Tomorrow we'Ll be working on getting the brackets cut to mount link bars and coilovers on both ends. Finishing up my wheels to mount the rockers on and trying to get as close as I can to have it sitting on its own.
Still need a. Few parts from the JY for the front D60 to be able to mount wheels but I should be able to make a run or two out there next week for those items.

Those tires are sexy. Gave me a 'special' feeling. Will be out to start helping at about noon, with fajitas. If anyone wants to pick up some toppings, that would be cool. (Guacamolie, sour cream, etc)
