my car is still apart from fixing the rear suspension.....i am planning on driving it to mooneyes , my driveshaft is still at the driveshaft shop, not finished(kinda depends on that to drive), just give me a cheer or to i needa get it back on the road and to mooneyes!!!!! thanks heres what it looks like as of right now................ excuse the mess(its getting rushed)
Look how close you are! My rod currently consists of A rails in the backyard and a seized flathead ... finish it up and make guys like us jealous.
You need to be working on it instead of posting on here.. I told ya to let me know if you needed anything... Jason.
WOW it looks not like that much work just get out there and get after it. Go to the drive shaft place give them 4 hours to get it done. If its not done get it and tell them to stick it! there must be more drive shaft places. The guys around here will do them in less than 2 hours. Call your buddy's get some beer and have fun. Thats what this life style is all about!!!
Hey 5W, If you get it done and drive it to the show on Saturday you will have one hell of a story to tell everyone, the journey is more than half the FUN !!!! Come on dude !! Rob

What's up Jordan....I see your hard at work puttin your coupe back together...if it rains tomorrow my brown *** will be sitting at home and playing guitar....gimmie a call if you need an extra hand lifting **** or something. Good Luck.
What did the driveline shop do for you??? I make drivelines all the time. I might try to come out and bring one of the guys with me.. Are you at the shop I have been to ?? or the new shop.. Jason.
its at my dads shop..... do you need a lathe???im calling him first thing, i hope its done, it might be.......fingers crossed
Take that Big blue chunk on the left, lift it, turn it counter-clockwise 1/4 turn, then put it on that other blue piece on the right add some bolts and that driveline & your done! Hope that helps. See you at Mooneyes!!
cool ride dude! my high school shop teacher used to drive a 41' ford coupe with J2/4spd power and when someones project got stalled he used to say"quit crying and keep trying" or it will never get done!
