What are you guys doing today Car related

Im stripping a rusty 34 Ford Truck suspension ,After that I have to cut the Firebird deck lid 'Then buff ..... I just figured to see what the rest of the world is up to.....

 

I went to Hot Rod Garage today to see Jason and get caught up with everything there. Took a bunch of pics of some killer car projects and will post soon.

 

Just re-started on the 32 yesterday. Today trying to mod a 41-48 Ford column with a chevy truck inner shaft to use a 41-48 chevy car steering wheel and an Olds horn button

Going out to hardware store to get another flange bearing for the column. I'm doing away with the Ford rubber upper column bushing...

It all fits so far..knock on wood

 

Trying to buy a new used daily driver.

 

Primering some parts and trying to get my 4L60 trans adjusted properly, TV cable.

 

putting pistons, oil pan on a 425 nailhead, and then starting prep on heads.

if I can ever get away from my a/c computer room. it's about a billion degrees in the garage.

 

My Dad is moving so I am getting my GTO out of his garage.

 

im Reading the H.A.M.B and the classifieds for car parts

 

Sachse Rod Shop had an open house today, went there and checked out some nice cars, came home and took a nap.

 

Tearing down the front suspension on the Chevy. Since the front suspension wil suffice for everything I can forsee doing in the next ten years, I decided to completely rebuild it now, instead of just giving it king pins and link pins to get it on the road for a while. I'm glad I did, since I found the driver's side lower control arm is rusted pretty nastily at the spring pocket. Anyone put a MII front in theirs and still have the old parts lying around?

 

Took pics of car parts destined to be placed on ebay(too new for here)
Attended a Studebaker chapter picnic.Good times with good friends.
Leaving soon to pick up a pile of parts I was offered at the above picnic.

Had to break out the tractor and box blade today - all this damn rain we've had over the last two weeks washed out my driveway, creating a huge rut and holes that needed fixed. Yay.

Wrenching on the '66. I've still got some electrical gremlins going on where I can't even drive the damn thing out of the garage! Idles great, stalls in gear, with all of my electrical components doing wild shit.
