Re: 1941 project fenix

haha I still have the original one, but its washed and worn out by now, just an emergency cap when the sun is too high

wear your gloves! using the 4" brush on the grinder and the impossible happened, my thumb would have been hamburger.


moved the trans crossmember





I had already decided to replace this rear brake line but as I moved it to clean up the frame for my weld...


rolled out!


body on!


my motor move was ambitious but worked perfect, 9.5" rearward. only one bracket hit the firewall, although I did have to move some harnesses and wires.




I used moog problem solvers years ago and forgot that they have an eccentric for camber (solving the problem of excessive negative camber of worn springs). you flip the cross shaft one way or the other, I picked the wrong way.


oh well, everything still needs to come back apart.

mounts are dead on, near as I can tell anyway. they measure out the same way to all the monuments.
