Motorman's Build

[motorman7]

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

OK, got the steel wheels and hubcaps on. Time for a small photo shoot

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.

Wow Rich.....It just doesn't get much better than that! Congrats on an absolutely beautiful car!

Impressive!

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

This is stunning! I'll have to read through it all. As of right now I just looked at this thread as a picture book and I'm in awe. Beautiful work!

I'm blown away by how pristine your car is!  Really motivates me to finish my project.

Did we ever get the full thread reloaded to the site? Is all that information lost?

Carl B,

No it isn't lost. I have it on a different database and trying to find a way to restore just this one post.
