Some questions:

Anyone ever moved any of the suspension/ABS/Steering from an SS to an older classic?

Anyone know of a company that might have some parts that would help make the transition? The rear end probably needs a 3" shorter track, ie. 1-2" on each side. The rear coils are built for the unibody and need an alternative.

The struts on the front are also built for the unibody and I need to convert the rack and pinion steering/struts and avoid having to build a unibody support. Any ideas.

The object of all this is to create a restomod 70 Malibu that incorporates virtually everything from the 14 SS including all electronics, dash, NAV, heated seats, sunroof, driveline, etc.

Just about to pull the driveline from the 14. The 70 is almost at the point of the body coming off. A 3-4 year project.

Appreciate any input you guys might have,

Nick
