    Just noticed Don in that last photo of the newest garage companion, does the front shocks mount to a bracket off the spring ? You have said that it handles extremely well so the suspension must be working absolutely fine but I just noticed where the shock mounted and wondered.
    I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

    Good eye Mark. Actually the lower shock mount is off the bottom of the hairpin/radius rod

    Exactly what I thought but from the angle of the photo, I just kept coming to the idea that it was attached to the spring which just didn't make sense. Thanks Don as I do like to study how others build cars and all the different ways of suspending them and especially as you had mentioned how well it handled and sat glued to the road.
