I'm getting ready to work on the 6 now that the weather is getting nice again.
One of the major projects that needs to be done is the repair of the r/r outer long. I have most of the metal to start the repair but need some advice on the installation of the frame stiffener kit. This is also known as the clam shells and sold by restoration design. Has anyone done a step by step install for these? I thought there was something on the r/d website but it's no longer there. I know that I need to measure several points on the car prior to welding to confirm it's straight. I'll post pics as I go along with this repair. |

This is pretty good timing.
We did take the old installation pictures off of the website. They were dated and we felt that an updated how to install video would help the masses. Right now the chassis we will install the overlays on, is at the sandblaster. It then needs a quick primer coat and then we will have the car back here. We plan to get the video taken this week or next and then come out with the video shortly after. Stay tuned and I will let everyone know when we have completed the install. Pete |

You'll be hearing from me as I need to place an order. |
