Rubbed out my decklid... not as good as the quarters but will have to do.. i'm sure it had plenty of boxes and **** dragged across it over the decades....
 
I don't think i will ever do the hemi thing and i'm ok with it.... watching rick seaman videos building them and talking bout rockers being 5k a set (for decent ones) and ****.. it's just crazy
 
I never had or have the 340 worship... will never understand it honestly...

Eddie's dart after we rebuilt it and a little tuning... Can break the tires loose from idle by just stomping on the gas...



It kicked his brother's 69 Road Runner 383 4 speed's ***...
 
Clearly none of these guys and one girl have never taken props to a Rocky Horror Picture Show! Not sure if that makes me proud or sad!
Hah!
I got to see that done live at the fox theater in detroit here... we trashed the place. sooo much toast and toilet paper.... all for janet... THAT SLUT! :) the guy playing frankenfurter had to stop to tell the audience to stop..people were frisbeeing toast on the stage :)
 
Well, I was just so very close to getting the emergency brakes done. Dammed if I can't get the cable to reach. I'm about 2 inches short and for the life of me I can't figure out where to make it up.

Did a rebuild kit on the rear drums while I had it apart to put the new cable in

The e brake is a kit from inline Tube.

That happened to a coworker of mine. A few years after she started teaching she had a class party. The kids were asked to bring in baked goods to share with the class. One child brought in brownies. She had no idea the child baked them with pot. They had to call a lot of parents that day after they realized the class was high :lol:
 
Forgot to share these photos.
Gave my good friend a key tag and its on his motorcycle key. They went on a good tour late this summer.

I can't see the ebrake arm in that pic.. but that cable looks way more back than where mine is connected to the arm...
 
Looks like the arm is all the way pulled. Speaking of pulled how's the rubbing outgoing?

Did the decklid last night... didn't come out great.. i might do it again. That old paint is tough as hell. I need a new pad though, the paint i put on the lower quarters has never quite cured so it gummed up the pad and it's not working for ****.. gonna order one today..

Is it hooked to the intermediate cable? Seen those to short in the past. Should have gone with @mobileparts

I'll see if I can get a more clear photo of that this morning. At this point, squeaking out the last bit I need to get the cable connected would have everything at a high state of tension, which doesn't seem correct.
