Think wiring is done. Spent the morning adding fusible links,and tidying up the engine bay. Headlight lenses,grille and then under dash to tidy up.
Back to manual... Or adding a vacuum can?Brakes still suck. Brother wanted to switch to 4 wheel disk power. It was his car. But engine not enough vacuum to operate power booster. Soooo.
Pretty sure Scott's Hemi-sled is all manual drums. I figure I'm good to goMy 70 Cuda has manual drum brakes. Build sheet says HD Brake Option. Measured, Sure enough, they are 11 inch drums, front and rear. I think I'm Ok with that.....

i had no prop valve... i just installed one a few weeks ago.. and new flex lines a few days ago, haven't tried it yet..
Yikes, nice car, couldn't build it for that but way overbuilt for me. No reason for me to have a 572 Hemi. Also, the color makes me think of baby poop.@toolmanmike

When do you and Chin head back to VN?Man....Logistics to get this Cuda Blasted and primered are a nightmare. Seems as though nobody is dependable anymore. Blast guy is ok. He just got back from Family Vacation, and says he'll take the car on Tuesday or Wednesday. But trying to get a flatbed tow truck lined up has been difficult. Call, no answer, leave message, messages not responded to. 4 different guys with trucks. One would think that getting a tow truck would be the easiest of the logistics. There is an issue with a body guy to clean, seal, and prime the car. Blaster Guy is only 6 miles from me, and the body guy I'm trying to get is only 10 miles from me. But that guy won't respond to my calls or messages either. WTF ?? I did contact the old guy that painted the R.R. and the GTS for me. Thinks he can take it after stripping. Says he will stop by here today so I can show him whats up. He's not far away either. But the issue is, I MUST get the car to the body guy to prime immediately after stripping. Just hoping it can all come together here this week......
Mid November, Right after I do my Civic Duty and Vote... I know it doesnt make any damned difference in Maryland, But it sure makes Me feel good..When do you and Chin head back to VN?
There is always the chance someone who is no longer running already has enough votes to win. How do you keep track of all the name changing....Mid November, Right after I do my Civic Duty and Vote... I know it doesnt make any damned difference in Maryland, But it sure makes Me feel good..
