It looks like that orange they used on the calibers and neons

Crazy amount of work ya got their but very nice! I've always liked that metalic orange but it would be cooler too roll that bee for a summer with miss matched panels and bring it out the next summer lookin all flashy shod in shiny metalic orange, it's just fun to screw with people just shark hide the raw metal!
Finally got the Dana complete, just need to add another coat of primer and paint it.
Still need to buy the emergency brake cable kit and that's it for the rear. So far it has cost me just over $3500 ouch!

That looks nice! And nice work on the dolly, too. Can't wait to see it finished.

Looks good in its new home!
After much searching and research I decided to go with the Alterkation front suspension kit with the Wilwood brake kit. I had to make new mounting brackets for the upper control arms because the ones I bought with the kit are to thin for my liking and just have to put them on the milling machine and mill out the slots. Haven't had any time to work on the car so progress has been slow.
Very impressive work!
Got a little more work done.
I had a local machine shop tap out some 1 1/4" DOM tubing for 3/4 by 16 bolts and machined the ends to fit in the holes on the K member for cheap because I don't own a metal lathe. I then got everything lined up, drilled out and welded in place. Now I just have to complete the assembly of the Alterkation unit and get the brackets for the UCAs located and welded in place and the front suspension will be complete and the car will be a full roller until I tear it all down for paint.
I said it before,,,worth saying again, nice work!
Nice work so far.....
