Thread: Moving ahead rebuilding my '27 roadster.

No, I'm kinda on hold until the rear center section shows up. It was shipped Wednesday and should be here Monday. I guess this weekend I'll try to find something to do on it, maybe start sanding and prepping the body. But I really want it as a roller so I can move on to the next step of building the engine.

I've also got some small stuff coming from Speedway (new hubcaps, etc) and those should come Monday too.

Haven't had anything to post regarding my 27, but the center section showed up at work Tuesday. When I saw the UPS truck pull up the guys I work with said they've never seen me move so fast! I LOVE getting boxes from the big brown truck.

The guy who built it is the same guy who built my Son Dan's 9 inch rear, and he does a really nice job. I got the same Trac-Loc one Dan got, but ordered 4.30's and he got 4.00's. His Olds has more torque than my sbf will have plus mine is a stick, so it should pull fine with this ratio.

Plan is to get it up on wheels this weekend, then start ordering my engine parts. Here are the only pictures I have to post.........pitiful I know, but I am going into thread withdrawl and needed to show some progress regardless of how insignificant.
