[bob w]

Beautiful work, wendle.

Nice to see you back on the RPU, Don. It should be a treat after the Caddy project.

I snuck out to the garage yesterday for a couple of hours (don't tell my wife or the Dr.) I took off the radiator/grille shell/headlight assembly, cut off the ridiculously engineered upper spring perch, cleaned up the crossmember, welded on the new perch, bolted the front axle to it, reinstalled the radiator assembly, cleaned up the obvious evidence of activity, went in the house and showered before my wife got home.

Sneaky and efficient Looks like it must have raised the frame considerably Animal?

 

[bob w]

animal, you're an animal. Nice work on the spring perch.

Motor and trans mounts.

Earthman, I lowered the perch almost 6 inches, and it really helped with some problems the car had. The steering arm is now at a much better angle, the headers and oil pan can now clear the ground entering my driveway, and it helped the vision problem I was having, too. When I get to the point where I can move it, I'll roll it outside to get a side view picture or two. Thanks, Bob!!

We mounted shocks up on the front of our 29 Coupe.

Haven't run it down the freeway yet to see what we accomplished, but seemed better on the local roads.

 

[Jason454]

Welded a lower trunk pan and finished the floors in my 40. A job I always dread.

 

[choppinczech]

My drive shaft tunnel. Not exciting, just the next step.

It's still lots of work and not much to show for it.
Gauges mounted and attached, rear brakes rebuilt and bleed, air pump and tank mounted wired and plumbed, radiator mounted. Still finding burned wires all over the place
Sorry no pix
I'm hoping to get it on the road as a driver by the end of April, then start on the finish body work. [S
