Jeb had to pull up stakes and move the operation. Just getting Monte stripped now. Back at his house where a shop will be added soon. The 55 y/o lacquer is putting up a fight. Aircraft stripper is right at 100$ a gallon. Rock and roll!

Spotted in Farragut this AM I bet he is signed up! For a minute I thought he was heading up but its too soon! Nice!

Just an fyi in case anyone here is interested. Holly sniper system recall….besides the fact they don't work well to begin with.

Score! Thanks to Dr.Olds. Someone’s olds collection has hit the local pull a part. And the bushings are excellent so we will avoid the pain and suffering! Pictures refusing upload/ will return and retry.

Sold, how much was it listed for?

Bring a paint and body man! Nice for sure except for the Vinyl death starting to show again..

Valley Stream area. Alright got that membership completed. That was easy! Here is a flashback plate that was on my 70!

Thanks Willie. I think Dennis is digging around for one. I posted in a thread in parts also. I am from LI originally so you never know may have to visit..! I did find the Jared video just now its not that far away really but would be a challenge out there and most were gone already in 22. Not in a panic you know we’re taking the whole car apart at this point so he’s able to move it around and they’re working on the body.

Hey Jared let me know if you remember where the junk yard is. I should’ve bought the tool for him. I did read about that happening to someone… The closest one I found is in Virginia. Hopefully they’ll be something around locally. Definitely not really excited about putting in a $2000 12bolt in this two barrel 350.

Thanks everyone! Cincinnati isn't too far away. I know a 10 bolt is good enough, but are the brakes/backing plate the same as a 12 bolt?

Need a 10 bolt rear end if available!

Bad news the rear housing upper control arm ear broke after he put it on the ground… need a 10 bolt core/ or entire unit….

Installed the rear control arms (155$) new axle housing bushings also (@ 20$) and the sway bar links. Also New Air Shock absorbers from Monroe, new front shocks, sway bar links up front and new front brake hoses also. Rockauto is great @ 140$ Delivered for all! A great riding car even with the interior removed its smooth and solid. Onward to the paint and patina removal. I supplied some (20) 8” 40 Grit sanding discs to get him started.

Goodbye patina! 😀
