very nice work Dude !
Car like that I'd go from white to black so fast it would make your head spin and fall off
Steve, Im having the same dilema. My barracuda is supposed to be Y2 sunfire yellow (YUCK). I want to paint it black so bad but I just cant do it. I'm going with Y2, ho hum. No offence to any other Y2 cars.
Thanks guys, she will be going the orig color, not the color of choice, but to do it justice she needs the orig color. Hopefully show more progress in the next couple of months
Thanks for the input!!
Thanks clutch, she is a project that needs(ed) a lot of work, but with how low prod #'s I want to do it right. Did the Seattle guy ever finish the one from the wrecking yard?? What a find that is! I gave Matthon my info, so I am hoping to find someone else with the same car, at Moparfest this summer I saw same car, but 383 car!! Same every way ragtop, 4spd, formula s but his was big block #'s match everything. Nice car, 1st time I ever saw one.
I did a search and tried to find the easiest way to get the bushings out of the UCA, with not much luck. Pettybludart gave me some advice that helped and said to burn them out :thumbrig:That got rid of the rubber, but i still had to "press" out the leftovers. $$ is tight, so I ended up using 3/8 threaded rod, washers, some sockets and some heat to get them out. 1st pic is pressing them out. Worked pretty good actually. Once I got them out, I just reversed it, used a deeper socket and pulled the new ones in(2nd pic) They go in a heck of a lot easier then coming out!! Although it aint much it feels good to get this done. I'll finish sandblasting and paint them tomorrow. Back to studying:read2:
Can anyone tell me what is up with the plate welded on to the bottom of the drivers side UCA??
What a great car! Now I understand your screen name! I never knew.. LOL great work.
