I've been getting my thoughts together as to what needs to be tackled next and I will now present to all of you those ideas in full Slung Blade fashion. I've been running this list for a couple months to keep track so I'll omit the things that are already done.



Hahahahhaa, awesome. I hope this becomes a thing.

Also I like your Nova, they're neat cars. The grill is iconic and I love it.

Race you to road legality!

Your Coronet is pretty goddamned cool too. All I need is to put the engine back in it, finish the brakes, buy new wheels and tires, put the dash back together, renew the license sticker, and get it insured. Loser hangs up the winner's flag in the garage?

THE DIE IS CAST


I might have a slight advantage because I'm not taking the motor out until it's road legal, so maybe we, or someone, will have to come up with a mitigating factor.

Well that looks eerily familiar.

Good job Boaz. :unsmith:

All I need now is some fluid and some new u-bolts and it's ready for installation. Hopefully I'll get some rotors for Christmas and then I can call the rear end finished. I'm feeling pretty damned accomplished today.





Way to go man. Differentials are loving hard. Is there anything to set end play with in the axle shafts?

I'd check out the Hotchkis TVS kit. Looks like that'd knock out a good portion of your list in one swoop.

This. Installation is pretty easy, the instructions are a little wonky, but it works. Can't wait to get the rest on my car. Worst part is getting them to actually ship you the stuff.

Those wheels are gorgeous in those wells.

It's actually on the 15th, but Wednesday's a bit of a poo poo day for birthday celebrations. Happy late birthday!

Still though!


Same to you man.

What's it like having actual space in your garage to work on things?

I hope to find out some day :smith:

Holy poo poo, can't wait for the thread. Please don't let it die tho like slung blade did with his Coronet.

I just moved my content to my DIY thread after the ai thread fell into the archives because I'm a bonehead. I'm still working on the coronet.
