Totally agree with updating the steering and brakes. Heidts make some good stuff. I looked at them before deciding to get my M2 custom made to my ride weight, height & geometry. More expensive option but should give good results. Increase the power then you need to increase the safety. A custom is about being laid back and enjoying the ride nice and easy like. Your bird in the middle of the benchseat.
Dont get me wrong i have old manual steering in my 52 and its a fun drive. But you need to be on point so much more and if you are driving all day or through bad weather it can be tiring.
What will your air out, ride & extended height be? Bags front and back? Those are not bag over shock like shockwaves. What are you running for the rest of the suspension?
Vesa, wish I had to time and patience, coming along nicely ! Mine is on the way to the shop this week for new brakes and on the road finally. Keep us posted, Dan

Very very nice car indeed. By the way..the tires,wheels..have you check or do you know?
The place to get new..ordinary or"custom"wheels..for tire size you have..thinking about the off-set/back-space in Hudson rear...
Have a nice weekend!
