This pile of parts will provide parts for both my other cars. The roof for a hard top convertible and fenders for the race car project.

The rest...

I seem to attract them.

And, for my pink notch, I will be picking up a roof section to see if I can make my car a lift off hard top. Fun fun!

My coilover front shocks finally arrived!

That is cool!

If things work out i will have fibreglass fenders on all the corners.

Had to order a new pair. Should be here next week.

my current project is tierods on the t1 beam.

I was having tire rub issues backing the red car up. Thought it was both sides...come to find out, the right side was almost 1.5" inboard! This is the same side that I had to reshape the rear fender around the light. Just got it all squarish again. No more rub! I am very glad I happened to start on ...

Next is adding a tab where circled to keep the fender off the rear of the 8 inch wide slicks.

I forgot to mention back then... the body and not been on a pan/chassis since the early 80s.

I started fitting the flush mount rear window tonight, but I need to buy a new drill bit. Only the center upper and lower holes are drilled so far.

Rear body wiring in, less license light



The right rear lamp housing isn't a perect fit, but compared to before I beat on the fender, it is awesome.

239712595_372602857811905_5405457839788408366_n.jpg I started the wiring process for the race car today. Almost all wires are routed and about 75% have the correct ends with their correct ends added. A few monitoring idiot lights are yet to be added and the msd box has to be wired it, but... for Ca...

Finally, a cooler day! We will be roughing in the wiring harness today.

I have started assembling the engine for the red notch. 1914cc with big, big, big heads, fk-8 cam with just under .600 lift and a t3/4 turbo. It shohld scoot ok when done.

Normally, yes. But, race car...

Nice!

Well, I bought some used fiberglass notch fenders to sort the twisted up/torn metal issues I have on the original rear fenders on the red car. They finally arrived and someone had cut them to fit to a fasty/square. So, plan B! Start pounding on metal!!! There was a significant push on the RR between...

Rut roe Raggie... Someone cut the notchback only parts off the fiberglass
