The engine compartment has been painted. The steering rack has been changed out for a decent one with all the hardware refinished. The kingpin spindle assemblies have been degreased and properly shimmed and a fresh coat of paint applied. The shocks Have had their oil changed and are reinstalled. A pedal assembly has been dismantled and bead blasted to bare steel and refinished. A NOS clutch master has been installed. The pedal assembly has been put in place awaiting a brake master to be bolted in before I permanently install the pedal assembly. The 2 lower coil spring seats have been bead blasted and painted awaiting the decision on front coil springs. A set of tapered roller bearings for the front hubs are literally in transit as I write this. A completely rebuilt set of front calipers are ready to bolt on once the front hub & rotor assemblies are put onto the spindles. </p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">There is a lot to go. Seriously after sitting in storage for so long, The car is making great progress. I've encountered quite a few things that had me scratching my head ( Kevin and Ron's heads too!). Impropperly marked hardware, missing hardware are just a few surprises the car had waiting for me. Things are getting sorted out one surprise at a time. Coming up soon will be welding up some hacked holes in a bugeye dash and doing a slightly modified switch layout for the racing application. Lots to come!</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Thank all of you for your help and support.</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Chuck</p><p dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br></p><div id="m_-6071989711184606349SignatureBox" dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Sent from my LG Mobile</div></div></div><br>------------------------<br><br><a href="mailto:spridgets@autox.team.net">spridgets@autox.team.net</a><br><br>Donate: <a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/donate.<wbr>html</a><br>Suggested annual donation: $12.75<br><br>Archive: <a href="http://www.team.net/pipermail/spridgets" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/pipermail/<wbr>spridgets</a><br><br>Unsubscribe/Manage: <a href="http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/spridgets/lbc77mg@gmail.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://autox.team.net/mailman/<wbr>options/spridgets/lbc77mg@<wbr>gmail.com</a><br><br></blockquote></div><br></div></div></div></body></html>
