a set of rodlites or halibrand style would be cool, but I got over the Gabriel Hi-Jacker look in the 80's...I even saw a guy do the east coast straight axle front end way back when... Kinda like a Big Daddy Roth "rat-fink" T shirt cartoon...

Update:
Just received my rear control arms from PMC Manufacturing and shocks from KYB. The control arms look really nice and appear to be very good quality.Attached FilesComment

COOL parts
Those forgotten A-bodies are fun to drive with a tight suspension.Comment

I always like the Lagunas, that's going to make a nice ride! Good thing the body parts are in good shape, I'd imagine usable replacement parts are spendy.TomOverdrive is overrated

One of the guys I hung out with in college has a '76 S-3, maroon, 350. He also had a silver '73 Laguna 454, 4 spd. The '76 was his daily driver and winter beater. It was in pretty good shape for a Nebraska car. He was my only gear head friend my freshman year. I didn't even have a car with me that year.
His roomie was my oldest friend. Dave drove a '75 Malibu coupe forever. It was nothing special, just a stripper with 350 2 bbl, bronze in color. Dave was so not a car guy.BS'er formally known as Rebeldryver

Parts Car
1976 Laguna S3 parts car. Nose is AWESOME and has a ton of parts I need for the green one. Lots of trim and engine compartment pieces I needed. All emblems have the colored strip in them. Back window trim, tilt column, and factory gauge package. 13 hours in the truck to pick it up but well-worth it. I actually gave some thought to just putting it away for a while, just because these things are becoming so hard to find.Attached FilesComment

Just a small update. Motor is still waiting to be put together. Heads still need to be assembled. I did score a neat pair of DART II valve covers off Ebay and after some research found they were probably from the 80's to early 90's.
Slowly collecting all the parts for the spring build.Attached FilesComment
