So, I finished drilling. Looks pretty good, but not up to the work that has already been done. So I need to disassemble and send the two main parts of each handle off to Ogden Chrome for a refresh.
What have you guys done? I know Paul takes these apart all the time. I don't suppose it's possible to do without destroying the rivet that it pivots on? Attached image(s)

I like the look.
Been thinking about doing the same thing. What size drill are you using? Bill. |

You have to file the top off the pin to get it out.

You have to tap/push the pin out VERY carefully. I've developed a few tools over the years to do this. You can damage the flapper piece if you are not careful.

Actually, I think I’ll try polishing the handle faces first. They look pretty good after a good cleaning. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

The tension on the pin will keep the pin in the hole. Reinstall the filed off end of the pin on the bottom of the handle. I've never had a pin back out. |

AA has a kit for replacing the long rivet. A smooth shank allen bolt with a short threaded area for a locknut at the end. I had to add a washer or two but it worked great.

Pretty cool! Always liked Brants "racer build" thread for all the weight reduction he did...

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) I don't really autocross anymore Bruce. 8 hours of standing in the sun for 5 minutes of fun is just not worth it. I drop in from time-to-time but track days are so much more fun and for $/hour of seat time? There isn't even a close comparison. Not trying obviously to get my car as light as Paul's car. It's just another part of being authentic to the spirit of the GT cars. As I said in my thread, this saves 3/4#. Better thing would be to put the driver on a diet and exercise program!
