Thanks boys....it feels great to have your work appreciated. ZZ - I found that double tie rod at Speedway Motors, and it sure did make hooking up the cross steer easy. I ordered all the steering items from them.

Sorry for the absence! The trip to Carlisle was great - great time away with three buddies, found a few little treasures (new cowl lights, taillights, etc) and just enjoyed a few days away, and fantastic weather!

Doing a little spring cleaning in the garage right now, had to make space for taking the car apart for some paint soon.

I should have some updated pictures again soon.

Default Lemons....

Well, life has dealt me some lemons recently.....I lost my Dad on July 2, so most everything has been on hold since the trip to Carlisle. He was the source of my "old car" fixation, and I'm going to miss him terribly.

I've just gotten around to ordering a few a bits today, looking to inspire some progress. Hopefully I'll find the time and the interest to be back at it real soon....and will certainly post some pic's when I do.

Sorry about your dad, I hope he didn't suffer. You know he would want you to finish your rod, do it in his honor. keep us posted on the rod and on you.

Sorry for your great loss. On a lighter note, I admire your work ethic and your ingenuity in engineering fixes as well as your building skills. I'm learning just watching. Perley
