Are you going to paint the car this weekend? I don't think so. He is going to hit it with one last coat of primer today or tomorrow. Then wetsand that. I think next weekend is more likely for paint. Thanks Ray. I am real happy with it so far. Now we have a long cold season of dreaming.... |

Got the rear hubs reassembled. Put in the wheel cylinders. Cleaned up and never-siezed the adjusters. Then when I went to put in the parking brake cables I discovered a problem. Running a '67 long axle trans in a '64 short axle car the cables won't reach. So, now I need to swap out brake cables.... I'll save that for another day.

Bren, coming along nicely. Let me know if you want to balance the wheels (I have the adapter for the 5x205 rims).

Thanks Ray. I have a friend in town with access to mounting and balancing machines. I am not sure if he can do wide 5's or not though. If not I will give you a call.

Super diff, welded 3rd and 4th, all the strength stuff.
I want to do a kafer bar. Just can't decide to buy or build.
Leaning toward buy but not sure what one.
