Chuck, you don't see IMSA bodied Monza's with correct period wheels very often.

Byron, you do have room, your IMSA CV isn't home is it? And I hear you might be moving in a little while, time to look for a larger garage where you might be moving to.............just sayin'

What is your email, I can send you some pictures I took of the underside about a year ago. The car is in inside storage and has been since before I took the pictures. The only problem I noticed is the the lower edge, about two inches high, of the front spoiler is sheet metal and has scraped the pavement, probably going up driveways. I can send them later tonight.

Todd when I was a kid Dad took us to Boston Mass. to look at a race car, that was far less than described. Round trip 42 hrs. Needless to say no sight seeing, or pee breaks, yes he was P :censored: d! And no speeding then, just after the "Oil Embargo" speed limit was 55 then so it would be quicker now for sure, his van got about 10/12mpg. @ 55MPH '72 Ford with a 302 auto and manual everything else. What a P.O.S! That is Windsor to Niagara Falls the Canadian way [about 4+ hrs. shorter] Here is a link: http://www.distance-cities.com/distance ... detroit-mi with directions [linked]. Harry

Here are some pictures I took about a year or so ago of the underside. I only took one of the body and it's from the rear.

Finally have a reply, don't know for sure on the spindles, possibly S10 or Chevelle. The car was purchased in its present condition without a complete list of parts used. The owner will try to get some space around it to take some pictures of the front suspension. It's in a very crowded storage facility.
