update
Well, it is coming along.
Lots of work just cleaning things up, trimming enough sheet metal and old brackets out of the way, etc.
The car will now sit all the way down over the engine/transaxle/subframe. I'm now beginning to fab mounting points for the subframe to mount into the Corvaiir chassis.
The subframe will be removeable, 'cause that looks like the vbest bet for servicing the engine and trans.
Once the subframe is in, then the upper strut mountings can be done. It looks like the Olds struts will have room for 2" - 2 1/2 inches jounce travel. I'd be happier with more, but will have to investigate. Depends on what size tires I want to run, and so forth.
Looks like the fun is just beginning...
cheers

Thanks guys! It's been a long road. Fun doing finishing work for sure. Getting the dash ready for paint and some interior trim. Have to do some finish work on the aluminum headliner before...
