Yes, Terry, it's an actual West Coast. I bought the kit from Vern Redel (West Coast Cobra) and took delivery in April of 2007. I'll zoom over to the website to check if there are pictures of a different setup on his example chassis or elsewhere. I've heard other West Coast owners mention that their kits weren't identical. Thanks for the information.

I'll definitely check out the alternative chrome-moly rods on the web and get this beast up to a chassis professional in March. It's at the upholsterer's right now, I had to try my hand at that art as well and found out it's not as simple as I had imagined....doh!

P.S. OMGoodness, I just check the West Coast Website photo of their rear suspension and on the version with outboard coilovers (which I have) the rectangular control arm is attached to the frame by a mount WITHOUT a top to allow it full travel......Sheeeeesh!
