He stated early in the thread, they are the RE-Speed Suspension Kit.

Not cheap!

That was my bad, I just looked through the pics here at work. Can't be caught reading non-work material too much.

I would ditch the wing (please) and if you can find a way to freshen them up, KEEP THOSE WHEELS!!
Old school FTW.
How can you say old school for the win, then say to ditch the wing?

That is the authentic Mariah flying whale tail.

I don't know if I'll keep those wheels. Performance tires in those sizes are getting scarce.

Meh, I prefer the wrap around IMSA style wing.

235s will be hard to find, the 215s shouldn't be too bad....thats what I run on mine :)

I have been thinking that I prefer black, but red would be pretty nice too.

Looks like you got dirty at some point in time....

Looks nice. I still remember the first widebody FB I ever saw. Good luck with the project.

fwiw, I'm not a fan of the wing either. :)

Where do your rear fenders attach. I know they are epoxied on, but I've considered using the rear mariah fenders on my '85. Got any pics of the rear fenders closer up... just trying to see if they'd fit nicely on my bodywork or not, lol...

Nice car though, needs some things here and there. I have the same seats in mine :)
