More assembly progress. Steering box is now installed as well as the steering linkage. The steering linkage is composed of all NOS, period correct pieces. Original idler arm bracket was detailed and green paint daub applied. Engine mounts were installed along with original restored fasteners. Spent the remaining part of the day stripping/painting suspension parts such as the coil spring covers and front brake backing plates.

  1. WOW!! You are my new Professor! I just stumbled onto this blog,, and all I can say is WOW! Couldn't figure out how to contact you or add you as a friend, so here's a comment. Unbelievable of the quality of work you're doing,,, so often, people do such shotdy work,, NOT YOU! Will be starting a restore with my son, of the 65 coupe(San Jose car) I used for my profile pic,,, not quite to the detail of what you're doing though,, but as close as I can afford. Where on earth do you get all of your info, especially on colors & coatings? I have purchased several books/cats/dvd's & have found info on internet sites,, but heck,, You Know Everything that I NEED to know. I'm think'n you could be rich if you put all of this in a book of your own. Thanks for this blog,, I'll be looking for updates! Doug Simon
