OH Man Jim was a great guy! Thoughts and prayers for his family as they go through this difficult time.

WOW, I'm glad I purchased one several years ago!

Congratulations Aaron!

Yes Rob. I did all of the work besides rebuild the transmission and add the 3:55 posi. I did the sheet metal repair and paint prep. I had a friend help spray the base and clear.

The last two wheels came out ok. A few days of electrolysis and wire wheeling to remove the rust and there you have it !

I know they did not come on a 71 but I am going to install them. I feel they spruce up the front end.

It has been a long road. As the saying goes when you have the time you don't have the money and when you have the money you don't have the time. Many things in life have happened in life during the restoration, some good and some bad. The good news is I sure hope to have it on the road by the time the salt has been washed away and I am able to put some miles on it and have the confidence to drive it to the 2024 Eastern meet.

Welcome Zachary!

Hi Steve, 2" and 25 in Cleveland this morning. I'm hoping for a spring coming in like a lion and out like a lamb!

Frank I have had two negative experiences as well.

Thanks Dennis

Thanks Joe that is the picture I am looking for. I would have thought it was a little closer to the windshield trim

You are correct Rob. I'm looking at how far the vinyl top trim goes to the top of the windshield

Yes exactly goes into the window channel. I would like the trim to dead end into the window trim further but then it only leaves a +1/4" where it slides into the Z shaped trim.

You are correct Rob. I'm looking at how far the vinyl top trim goes to the top of the windshield

Looking for a picture of the 71-72 vinyl top trim at the front window.

I'm very unhappy with the window cranks I purchased from a vendor at Carlisle They fit terrible on the spline. Recommendations on a quality crank is greatly appreciated.

Rob, I would stick with AC Delco and use R45TS and set the gap at .35 if you are still using points.

I'm looking for two 15x7 OEM Rally Wheels. When I mounted the tires today I found out 2 of the 5 were bent. Ohio in the Cleveland area.

My console trim was broken. How did you install? No directions, looks like it was pinched from the factory. Also looks like a center punch could be used.

?

Not sure Dennis but that is how I am going to resolve my issue by adding a little more jute at the top of the tunnel.

Thanks Joe, The carpet is somewhat loose at the top of the tunnel and the console has a gap there as you can see in the pictures. Dan said his had a gap also.

Console question Did you keep cutting down the center for the console to go down that little bit more? Seems like a large gap at the front.

I'm looking for the two seatbelt bolts with the long collar for bucket seats by the inside hump.
