Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

Got AC compressor installed, main unit mounted with block off plates bolted up. Defrost hoses and main controls reinstalled. Should be hanging the condenser and underhood parts this evening. Been sidetracked with Sunday family duties lol.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

Spindles/springs and new CPP sway bar installed. Repacked bearings while I was at it, cleaned and painted a few pieces, not going crazy with that, but while it's apart, why not right. I also stripped the painted center on my fender emblems, not sure of I like the look, but I'll let it ride for a while n see how I feel.



GOT RAKE? lol

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

Looking good! Reminds me a lot of my old pale yellow '72. When I first got it, I couldn't wait to paint it, but it does grow on you... Always wanted to do the '68 swap, but never got around to it. You thinking of using 67-68 side trim? <-- would be sick. Watching this one for sure

Here's what yours could have looked like--I like your wheel choice

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

Working a turnaround at work makes it though to squeeze in an hour or two at night, but I got a few more things done, some small stuff like new fuel neck grommet and some tidy up stuff. Did alot of tool cleaning and stuff, had to work on getting clearance for my sway bar because it was hitting my tie rods, blah blah, but got the drivers door aligned and the drivers fender on. Everything is pretty straight, but I won't know how well I've done till that hood goes on. I pick that up from the body shop Monday. They had some trash in it and the grill so they kept em to re shoot them. Hope to get on the rear suspension tomorrow.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

Thanks gringo, your Blazer in yellow is one of the motivating reasons to stay with the yellow lol. I really like this dumb color for some reason. And Shawn, I got no choice but to keep it up. I'm driving it to Cruzin The Coast October 11. It's got to be finished but this damn turnaround is killing me. It's gonna last until the beginning of October!
