67 GTS 4-Speed: Daily Summer Driver

Sadly I havent been making much progress on the GTS. I tried my hand at polishing the rear trim panel for the convertible. Finally got the sanding done on that and started using the polishing discs now. It is a very slow process but the results are great! I have about eighth of it shining nice.

Since I got most of my suspension parts in I finished up painting the steering components

I used the old tie rod ends to get the general length

My whole plan was to get the front suspension in so I can get the front of the car back on the ground, but... My lower control arm pivot shafts from Hotchkis didnt come in. So it looks like other areas of the car will get addressed this weekend, like sanding.

I also got new rotors and wheel bearings. I got the bearings in the hubs, and the rotors most of the way secured to the hubs. I am going to have a shop press the studs in the rest of the way. I cant safely do it at work and trying to draw them through with a lug nut and an impact gun just strips the lug nut.

This is the thread I used for part numbers on the front disc rebuild:
