Green Bean Progress!

I hope so as well.........Im itching because the floor insert was set up weird and the body would drop onto the frame and sit correctly. So I cut the bad spots out and the gl*** was everywhere. Ive already learned my lesson on fibergl***....No I gotta make this wonky seat insert seal up..Im waiting on the windshield post from El C and one good long weekend and Ill have it rolling

 

**** it sounds like you're having a week like mine.
I had to visit Tropical Tire this morning, the damn tire on the '60's gone kaput. It was damn scary.
It ****s having to spend money because of others stupidity.

I think the up in the air look coulda suited the T.
Isn't a dropped axle AND suicide mounting going to really drop the car TOO low?

 

its never to low!!!!!!!

hey idea packi...buy some new tires??? stop running to week(weak) tires
they may last to weeks....they may be to weak to last

 

Mike we stressed tested that seat insert pretty good. It hold my ***, so i wouldnt worry about you and a p***enger.

 

Oh yea the seat insert called me and said it was mad!!!

next week Ill have the drop of 4in

 

Well to add to the long list of parts........the wife got me a set of repop 23T headlights for X m***......Oh yea Im ready!!
gotta move gotta get this beast built

 

ok so Friday and saturday were great!! I finally got the front end together an mounted. then saturday I spent all day making true progress! I NOW have a Roller!!! yes the front ends set up, the rear spring is set on the axle, the rear radius rods are set on the axle. and the frame mounts are welded into place for the rear and mocked up for the front. I tried to send some pics along with this but have upgraded to XP and my camera dosnt work now!! anyhow its rolling and looking like a ROD!! tonight Im gonna set the motor in and set the front wishbones to the frame and adjust the front axle and rear axle into what would be called IN PLACE!!!
I love progress and promise new pics by tomarrow!!

 

Attached that gay-*** windshiled post yet?

 

No I have to build up the gay *** fibergl*** mount areas!!

Owe yea I tosses the swampers for some decent ride height used tires for set up and rolling only!

cheater slicks and skinnys coming. 15x6 and 15x10 for the rear!!

 

Nads came by and checked out the progress and said some really kind words!! Thanks Nads for the Props!!!

also last night I set the motor in for set up ideas and removed it. I was cutting the wishbones and BAM!! one broke!
well after that I grabbed the catalog and ordered 37" curtis style frt radius rods and mounts!!
and the pics will be up some time today!

 

It looks ****ing great Mike.
It's too bad about the split wishbones breaking.
Man that's a scary thought, internal corrosion. Ya' gotta remember those things are hollow and they're at least 55 years old.
