Some progress has been made since last week. First thing was to remove body panels that are either being replaced or in the way starting off with the front and rear bumper covers as well as the fenders.

The Moton triples were removed since they are getting sold and while I'm waiting for her new suspension setup to arrive, the stock ones were put back on so that she can move under her own power if needed. It'll be sad to see the Motons go as they were such an integral part of the Bumblestook performance package but they're going to another racer so I'm happy they're at least going to be used for what they were built for.

SJF also installed Bumblestook's original control arms now fully replaced with spherical bushings from Ballade Sports. The roll center adjuster plate for the Hardrace offset camber joint can now be put back in so good geometry can be maintained once she gets lowered again.

More parts are streaming in as we identify parts that we'll need or I come up with new hair brained ideas but I still need to pick up the trunk and rear bumper that I located. At least the weather is cooperating so I expect more progress will be made this weekend. In the meantime, "Project Simplify" is continuing as planned. Lupa has moved to her new location in a 2-car garage anxiously waiting for Bumblestook to join her.
