    Sounds like a plan! (y)
    We have lots of members in the SoCal area so hopefully some of them will pipe in and help you out with some parts. There are a lot of us throughout the country with the parts you need but it will be helpful to find them a little closer. You should contact MaverickMan (Derrick Yee) for a hood. He makes carbon fiber cowl or Grabber hoods and he is right there in Cal. The suspension stuff is available from many vendors...just need to get it new. Good luck with the project. Keep us posted and we like pics! :)
