Engine in and the fit up is going great.

 

That sure looks sweet in there! Nice progress.

 

Thanks! This is coming along, all my hard work is coming together. The rolling cassey is about finished.

 

Took these pieces to Missoula to be powder coated--- bumper brackets, spindles ect--- one week later they called and their ready to be picked up.

Driver side header and ex installed-- A/C alum dress up cover.

Parts to be powder coated.

 

Nice progress!

 

This thing will be running by spring!

Calipers epoxied

powder coated parts

I hope to have this running this spring-summer. Some more pix got the pieces that came back from the Powder coater, came out nice. Waiting for some fastners from Fastnal, there in the middle of moving---- won't be open till Friday.

 

This may be a stupid question ... Is that an outer metal protective sheath on the brake lines, or is the line itself ribbed to make it easier to form?

Great progress!

 

This is a stainless steel spring cover that slides over the brake line to protect it from rocks.

 

Haven't worked on this for a bit-- had lens implant surgery ----- this has been GREAT-- cant wait to do some welding, hoping I'll be able to see the puddle. Can't lift anything over 10# for a few weeks, will only take an hour or so to finish fitting up rotors, brakes,rolling chassis will be complete. Paint process should start at the end of Feb.

 

Good luck with the recovery.

 

Thanks Wane. Came out great, nice to be able to see again. Here are some pix of the brakes and rotors, chassis is finished, waiting on the painter.

 

Car is on It's way to the paint shop, can hardly wait to have this started on.

 

Congratulations, that's a big step. The tough part will be the waiting.

 

And the bill

 

Oh yeah that too lol

 

Been awhile since I posted pix, paint si looking GREAT should be on the frame Monday. Been a long wait, but well worth the time.

Smoothed dash

 

Car is on the frame, doors and trunk fitted all seam were attended to looks great, can hardly wait for this to be in color






All the openings are painted-- color sanded and buffed

 

I love the body style on these cars. There was one in the city with a straight front axle light blue, I loved that car.

 

A few pix of this in paint--- next is the cut and buff stage--- getting close to being back in the shop to get assembled.
