Re: LVPhotos 1962 Build

Motivation Monday! Play Mortal Combat CD..."It has Begun!"
Few hours of prep and tear down. Steering link and box out. Torsion Bar crossmember dropped. Shocks out, shock mount cut off. Floor vacuumed of all debris... like to start next day clean.

Re: LVPhotos 1962 Build

Is tomorrow "Torsionless Tuesday"?

I'm really looking forward to seeing all those sexy new suspension parts installed. Your truck already had a cool stance. It'll be awesome with matching front wheels.

Re: LVPhotos 1962 Build

Torsionless Tuesday! My 2lb mini BFH and a lame Harbor Freight breaker bar as a persuader/punch. Always keep broken tools they become a tool of another sort.
Transmission crossmember out. Few bolts out. Prep to pull front doghouse and engine. Hopefully my parts will be in tomorrow.

Re: LVPhotos 1962 Build

Cut steering shaft to make DD. Cut in rack notches, after hours of cleaning and scraping. Lil paint. Tomorrow is time to lay down some welds and bolt up the clean and shiny stuff.

Re: LVPhotos 1962 Build

Chop, cut, paint. Welded notches, didn't like excess materials so it got the grinder. For those who didn't know, the notches are for rack and pinion with the Porterbuilt crossmember.
