Here's one of my distractions that's been taking up time that I should be using to finish my engine build. I picked up a set of front struts and brakes from a 1972 911T for a 5-lug conversion. Here's my progress up to this point..
Struts: Bead blasted, just primed one tonight... Will be painted satin black. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Nice job.
Who did your plating? I'm planning on having some stuff plated when I can afford it. |

Nice job. Who did your plating? I'm planning on having some stuff plated when I can afford it. I checked around the Portland area for platers and couldn't find anyone that handled small hobby jobs. I'm sure there's someone out there, but it was far easier to send them to Eric Shea. He added them to a batch he was sending to his plater. It was a great deal. I sent dirty disassembled calipers and hardware to Eric via USPS and a couple weeks later, I received the beautifully plated caliper parts and black oxide coated hardware at my door, ready for assembly. Thanks Eric! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
