Keefver MITP is Mopars In The Park...30 miles south of Minneapolis. Three day show weekend after Memorial Day. 1400 cars like a smaller Carlisle, very well organized.
About 8 hours away from here.
 
Just great.remove a couple pieces to get at frame for repairs and....

14 hours to Carlisle from here. 12 if Mopar Joe drives. LOL
 
Need to make it to Omaha one of these years. A 4 hour drive for me but so is MITP. A bunch more for you and Cheryl.
Just about double that for me but I had a blast last year there. Jaws beat me out for farthest traveled by under thirty miles I think? Hah! Plus I got to meet up with Craig and his better half. Omaha was fun but MITP is much bigger by a lot. To Craig’s point 1400-1600 cars and very well run show. They have it down to a science.
 
6 more bolts and both fenders are off. Why stop now??
Dang!
That's impressive.
Typical luck, at least for me, is the bolts are rusted and impossible to grab both sides and/or get a grinder on them.
 
So i was right, didnt stop.

So, pulled front spring bolts out.
and dug out some heavy wall square tubing.will build new front hangers roughly 1-1/2” shorter. Remove 3 bottom leaves from springs and there is another 1” and factor in the extra sag from the missing leaves and i should total 3” lower.
