Re: Thelonerifes 72 stepper

Thanks Mitch.

I got a suicide donated to me from a board member and its amazing how much it helps. Its got Felix the cat and a Chevrolet emblem on it. pretty cool. I also picked up an intake manifold that i'm not sure if I'm going to use but it makes the motor look better on there. I'll clean it up later.

Re: Thelonerifes 72 stepper

thanks Allen

Geoff, I don't know who made them. they had a couple stickers on them and I just took them off quickly. I know one was made in china or tiawan because I remember shaking my head. they are a good guage imo for inners.

Re: Thelonerifes 72 stepper

Thanks guys. its a DD. I think I'll just have to spray it and watch it peel off. oh well. I just put new bearings on the front rotors and grease seals. I cleaned up the dust guards and put them on the drop spindles. Maybe we can get them on at the meet.

Re: Thelonerifes 72 stepper

Yes they are Bryan. I hope we can get them on. The only time consumer will be the ball joint rivets.

I painted the master cyl. It looks okay now.


I have been busy this week and this weekend is the TNCTC meet at Rons. I didn't get a chance to have my tires flipped to blackwall so I just sprayed the letters for now. I'll get it done next week. I think they look better with blackwalls out.

Re: Thelonerifes 72 stepper

Well the front is lower! Thanks to Everybody that helped me get this done as I am a novice at the suspension at best. It was done at the meet today. It has cut coils and 2 1/2 '' spindles. I will do the rear after I get it aligned and possibly some new exhaust. Again thanks to everyone involved. I figured if I named names I would leave someone out and thats not right. You all know who you are. Thanks!

Re: Thelonerifes 72 stepper

Here Chuck, I have no problem naming names

TerryJ, Pickles, Woody, Pickles, Blue 71, Jewels, and DPowers.

The pics don't do it justice, it looks really good going down the road.

Re: Thelonerifes 72 stepper

I'm glad you knew their names Bryan. If any body else helped thanks!

I've gotta find some rear springs and most likely a new panhard bar.

Geoff these guys and pickles chipped in and got it done and I appreciate all they did. I learned a lot on the way. A special thanks to ron for loaning the tools.They know if they need any help I'm there too.
