Im kinda in the same category as you right now. From what I can see, I need control arms, subframe connectors, shocks/ struts, sways. after that though, where do you go?

Few weeks she will be ready.
Thanks Steve, yea it's a fun car, I dont ever plan to let it leave the family. Even if I have to sell my 86 to keep it, it wouldnt even be a second thought.
Where Id start, you have the springs which is great. Id do full length subframes, weld the torque boxes at the same time, an under hood strut brace (which I have a bad ass one I will sell cheap since it doesnt work with the Griggs), a g-load brace which braces the stock k member and keeps it in place during hard turns, bump steet kit, and upper and lower control arms for the back. At that point you should have a pretty damn good handling car... not torque arm + watts link good; but pretty nice and fun to toss around... All those parts should be less than a grand, esp if you buy my strut brace for half price.
Dont forget some better tires too...
