hi & welcome. Nice care to make into a great ride. When you start posting photos or build thread or have questions post them on the General discussion Hokey *** message board and everyone sees that Good luck with your build, Jimmie
Thank you for the positive feedback , and for the opportunity to be a part of this forum , it's greatly appreciated !
Just want to start with a little about this car and my progress in this restoration , the car was last tagged on the road in 1979,the year I was born,lol,anyway it has been stored ever since,after finding the car for sale I couldn't p*** it up,as I have stated it has a 230ci flathead six with a three on the tree trans,I have sanded and painted all the parts I could,including the block,fan,pully,waterpump,oil bath filter housing,and engine compartment.I have replaced the timing set,coil,plugs,wires,new carb,mini torque starter,hoses,belts,new closed canister oil filter,and swith ed to a alternator conversion kit,the seats are being reupholstered in a two tone black and white tuck and roll,and should be ready this Wednesday,headliner and carpet to follow,the car runs and drives great,other then brake issues,they are a little sloppy,replaced the master cylinder,and wheel cylinders but the adjustment nuts to tune the pads are a pain in the #!%@ Thinking about paint colors now any ideas?
I was wondering how I go about posting on the general message board,or do I need to keep posting on the new to the ham... section?
Hey thanks,that's a couple of beautiful cars,the interior is white and black two tone and I was thinking maybe a dark gunmetal grey or deep blood red maroon ? who knows maybe I'll paint it like a taxi....
I should be able to pick up the seats from the upholstery shop today,can't wait to see them I'll post picks as soon as I get the seats back..
