Well so we meet again. I have not had alot to say lately. Hey I don't even know what's on the website...maybe I should check. Anyways I can tell you that I have been playing bolt cleaning man lately. Gotta love Naval Jelly. Oh yeah and Rust converter is good too. Well so I got the front frame section bolted on. Woo Hoo! Looks kewl too. And then the biggest surprise is the rear end finally came in. No need to mention where I got it since I got no deal but its a 9 in, 3.50 gears, disc brake setup, etc. Looks good as you can tell from the pics. Man I feel it! Ok so well I am a bit off but it is coming... I got some more welding to fix a few holes I found in the floor as you can tell but already got the pieces cut and primed to go in so no big deal. The next thing is a transmission. I am leaning towards a Tremec cause they are cheaper than the Richmond with a true overdrive 5th gear. Is anyone willing to give me a deal on one of these? ANYONE? I'll plaster your name all over this site! And even put your sticker on my car! Window that is... Anyways...there's my begging for today so sit back and enjoy the pics. If you have money I need some! Parts? I need those too! Ok I am really done begging! HEHE Take care...
Notes: I went to the local hardware store and got grade 5 bolts for the rear shackles that were the same length as the original. Drilled the holes on the shackles a bit, welded washers on em and put my poly bushings in. I found T Bolts at a place and they are like 4 bucks a piece! What a racket they got goin on!
The image names pretty much say what they are...and of course they are out of order :)
