Featured Projects A Vision Again...Odd Duck Coupe The Sickness Continues

Thanks fellas.
Lots to pull together - winter project.
No promises all will get done by spring, the list is long. The exhaust is the biggest thing.
The rest is on a smaller scale that I'll take one at a time.
Being retired after the first = will afford me more time I haven't had before.
Changed the plugs - fired right up.
No choke, even though it's 55 in my shop, still had to feather it to warm up.
No exhaust ( which is on the list) but it sounded ok... a bit loud of course.

 

Thanks Anthony, but undecided.
I lean towards a slight forward rake ( like it has now) vs a **** drop dragger but I have the skirts - I think - - I cleaned out a bunch of stuff out of the trunk. I'll see.
But I've been know to change my mind more than once to many more times......
I get the visions as you know , brain stare with eyes closed for 5-10-15 minutes or more.

 

Which one ?
Are your referring to the square opening where the bumper brackets were on both lower fenders or am I not seeing something ? The fronts are the same way. Square openings were the bumper bracket connected.
I don't plan on doing any major work to the body except that p***enger door rocker - that's it.
The rest is rock solid hard with no crusties anywhere.
The roof on the drivers side towards the slope has a little wave but I'm not touching it.
It ads to the character.
My days of smooth ended after the last diaper I changed on my sons butf 33 years ago.
I've done my compe***ion show time many years ago.
I just like to drive to events and see buddies have a beverage and enjoy time together,

 

Didn't notice it but easy answer - no at this time.
Not immediately important, it matches the owner....me.
My left hip is shot . I walk out of whack, we match.
Eventually a full hip rebuild / replace but honestly won't be tearing into the car in the near future.
I just want to get it road worthy first and foremost.

 

I may as you mentioned pull and push into shape if it isn't too much effort.

 

Hey - Thanks for the Raybuck link - I was going to make some.
I don't plan to run any bumpers so this may work to plug it internally / not stick out.
This works.
Thanks !

 

How’s this for a head on hood shot.

 

They are coming out.
It's on the list.
Today was changing plugs, ( which was a *****) had to jack it up and get to them from underneath,.
Started it up to warm it up. Idle adjust. No exhaust from manifolds back. Loud.
Tweaked drivers window- not rolling down - have to look up inside in more detail to see if the channel / arms is moving with the handle or not.

 

I’ll take your word for it.
