August 22, 20168 yr Author comment_501577 Did some detailing today. Also, added a pic of the diode on the antenna. It works great. Got some decals put on, buffed out the paint a bit and worked on the stereo install. Will get the original rims and hubcaps put on tomorrow. Here are some pics Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/55525-motormans-build/?&page=6#findComment-501577 Share on other sites More sharing options...

September 5, 20168 yr Author comment_502526 Got a few more items added to the car. Got the skid plate powder coated and attached to the underside of the car. Never realized that all of the nutplates are there on the bottom of the car. Bolted up nicely with some new M4 bolts. Got the horns re-furbed and installed. Also got the choke cable holder installed. Re-tuned the carbs while I had the air cleaner off. Also took the car for a nice drive to check everything out. It's running great with plenty of power. Very smooth and great to drive on the freeway. Took the car to the alignment shop last week and got that dialed in. Looking forward to the JCCS in a couple weeks. She is close to being finished.

September 5, 20168 yr Author comment_502585 Thanks for the response everyone. It has really been fun (and educational) putting this all back together. I will probably take a break from the car restorations for a bit once the JCCS is past. I need to get going on some overdue house maintenance items. Not nearly as fun as working on the cars but very necessary. Thanks again, Rich Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/55525-motormans-build/?&page=6#findComment-502585 Share on other sites More sharing options...
