Been lurking here for years, finally registered and decided to get some input on my build.
As it says, we are bagging a 92 Caprice.  Plans are to lay it flat frame for now on 2's, keep the back seat, heat and a/c etc etc....

 


 


For Reference this is stock
 




 
 
Will be running RE-7's up front
 
 

 

 

 

 
De-Humped the lowers and Piecut the Uppers
 

 

 

 

 

 
Before cutting inner fender structure

Well we ran into huge issues with the bag collapsing correctly with the de-humped arms, so we decided on tubular arms.  1.5x.250 wall  - we already have a re-designed arm using DOM tubing in the works         AAAAAAAAAAAAND to get this up to date we are working on the rear of it.  cut the floor out yadda yadda, cut some notches from 2x3x.250 tube and started them welding in, this is fully up to date as of yesterday     Also mods, I fucked up.  Please move this to American Cars or wherever it should go.  Im sure its not supposed to be in Truck Buildups!

Thanks, Im really stoked to get this on the ground and drag it hard.  The arms are a preliminary design, the balljoint is not high enough so they are being redesigned.  In the mean time we are going to try to get the rear buttoned up soon so we can get back to the front.

We're in the process of finishin' up a 94 caprice bodied on 20/22 combo.  I can fully understand all the work you've done.  Looks good, keep it up.
