Here we go,
I bought this chassis several years ago and have been cutting out sections with rust. This roller was a 1976 with Fiberglas Flares, I like them. There is much work to be done. My 5 Major Project Points are: 1) Repair & Replace all rusted areas and weld in; * - New Floor Pans. *- Repairs to the Hell Hole area. *- Engman Kit. *- Weltmeister Chassis Stiffening Kit. *- McMark's Roll Bar. 2) Install Patrick Six Engine Mount, Install Engine, Have Transmission Rebuilt, Install Patrick Oil Tank and all Lines necessary, Install Oil Cooler, Rewire complete car. Replace and treat inside of Gas Tank, install new CF/ Fuel Lines. 3) Replace Doors, Windshield, Install Spartan Street/DE Interior, Sparco Vintage Seats, New Console, MoMo Wheel. 4) Prep car for Paint, all panels prepped, Hood, Trunk, Doors, Targa Top. 5) Replace & Upgrade all Suspension, Brakes, Bushings, Wheels & Tires. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Update to my regular thread as I put the October update on the main thread and did not update on this thread.
This will be a shorter cliff notes edition. October Floor Pan Fit-Up. Rear Corner Brace Fit-Up. November Stuff TIG WELDER December drilled out all of the Spot welds in the base of the Tunnel. Cut out what I could and prepared myself for what I thought was going to be a rusty mess? It may not appear that this is clean but I expected a lot more rust and was really quite happy with what I found. Obviously I have to patch in three sections along the tunnel in three different areas, but other than that and to shore up several holds on the Clutch tube, I am happy. I continued to clean up the areas with sandpaper used a little Ospho and put a coat of primer on them to keep them in check. This whole tunnel will get a healthy dose of the Eastwood inside panel green stuff and should be good to go. The Restoration Design Driver's side middle brace is next to get welded in and then I will clean-up all the little stuff while I have such good access before the Floor pan is attached. |
