[Checker-l] Re: A-12W Upgrade

Tom,

I heard a bit about the car yesterday from Ben Perlin (your 
rebuilder contacted Ben for gauges). Ben didn't know all the 
rebuild details and, from looking at the photos, what he 
remembered was a bit off.

Looks like you took a Corvette C4, swiped the front and rear 
suspension from it, and hung it on the A-12W frame. Appears 
you reused the A-12 lower A-arms and custom fabricated the 
upper A-arms. Plus a bit of an engine / transmission upgrade.

You should consider writing an article for the newsletter 
about your experience.

John
