    I considered several other materials including wood, but due to the tight space I thought it may interfere with the tools and cause more of a problem. The sheetmetal is a heavy gauge and is backed...

    I did some testing of the torsion bars with the struts disconnected last evening, and the drivers door seems to have too much tension. Here are some pics of the results.

    No I didn't mean to imply that, just that the car is road legal and could now be driven if running. I'm taking it slowly with several other project cars also under way.
