Downforce.
Q: How do you get downforce an a budget?
A: The hillbilly wing.
Yup, this sweet baby is goin' on the back of the Belvedere. It's made of the finest foundinagarbagecan vintage ironing board filled with job-site scrounged plywood and bolts. I'm still on the lookout for some kind of bracket and maybe a paisley ironing board cover.

Seeing Straight.
Looks pretty good from here. Still tracks straight. What could be wrong?
The bent frame becomes apparent when the new (came with car) fender is bolted on. The front right frame rail is bent upward about 2". How do we fix this? With a few turns on the right torsion bar.
Thank you Mopar for adjustable front suspension.

Stopping Is Good.
Four wheel drum brakes just ain't good enough to stop this mighty pile of scrap metal. Front discs are what's called for. Fortunately for us, the brakes from '70s A-bodies with some extra parts from '70s B-bodies will fit right in.
Before surgery.
Caliper + Face = Bloody Face.
Almost done.
Finishing up.
After party.
All in all, a weekend well spent.
