Re: 1960 Biscayne

Got some work done this weekend. I pulled the passenger side suspension and installed the StrongArms and ShockWaves. I must've cleaned out 5 lbs of dirt, wire-wheeled the frame and spring cups, then painted to freshen things up. I also painted the Ride Tech parts an hammered silver. After paying a bunch of money, I thought it would be nice to be able to see them.

The front end coming apart:



Before:




After:




The old and new pieces:




I was going to re-use the original brakes and spindle for now and replace them later when I swap the engine out, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. I ordered a brake and front end kit from Performance Online, won't be getting that until the end of the week, most likely. Until then I get to repeat the process on the driver side.
