Happy New Year everyone! My New Years resolution is to finish this car. Actually by this time next year I'm hoping to have it at the upholsterer so we can hit the road in the spring of 2016. If it happens sooner all the better. So on to the update...The frame is at the powdercoater and should be back in about a week. In the mean time I have broken everything down and I've been painting and detailing like crazy. The rear end is all stripped, cleaned, & repainted as well as the split bones, steering arms, front axle, trans cross-member, steering box, and the brake brackets. The coilover shocks were fun. They were new (still had the tags on them) but they were all rusty and crusty from sitting there. The tops were just aluminum castings that had undercoating, paint over spray, and were all oxidized from sitting so I polished these and the bottom locking spanner nut (also aluminum). The coils will be blasted and painted tomorrow (Black) and the bodies were stripped of all their paint and repainted red. But before I could do that I had to fix the oil leaks at the adjustment screws at the bottom. Some new o-rings, crush washers, and refilling the shock with oil and some bleeding and we are good to go (Big thanks to the Mrs. for the help). That one saved me about $300. I have my fingers crossed they work okay and stay working for years to come. Santa got me a pertronix upgrade for my points distributor so I installed that. The transmission is at the the shop getting a makeover and I've been wrestling with colors. I've got it down to Dearborn blue or Washington blue (leaning towards the Washington blue). Whelp, that's it in a nutshell.
