You really got lucky on the jack!! With some patience a hook will be found. Need to look at small shows for better deals maybe..

 

[1969 Hemi RTs]

my offer was 100.00 for the hook. I thought it was worth that! I've sceen them for more and less. condition makes a big differance. pitts or dings I wouldn't pay over 50.00 for one!

Well I got back around to the GTX yesterday, beings it was my birthday I get to do what I want! so anyway I found a easy way to press out lower control arm bushings with out having to make a driver (provided you have a welder and some big bolts laying around).

On another note got a call from Souix City Chrome, they are starting on my bumpers this week. Should see them and the wiper motor back in a week or two.:hello2:

Awesome ! Can't wait to see the updates on them !

Took front suspension pieces to the shop to get painted so I can start putting the front legs under her.

 

[daytona kid]

Have you considered some of these?, while you have the control arms off?

I did Kid, but she is going to be mostly a straight line. Not really into seeing how fast I can take onramps. I am putting a front sway bar on though. Hope your doing well, been off line for awhile.

Good to see your back at it. Did you make it to the Winterset show?

 

[69 GTX]

No missed it, was out of town on vacation. Been talking with IQ52, getting ready to turn him loose on my engine build! :hello2:

BTW we have a new Beagle named Coach. Just picked him up over the weekend. He's a rescue dog, 8 yrs old. He will be a little bit of a challenge for a while till he gets comfortable with his new surroundings. But he's going to be great to have around!

 

[daytona kid]

Keep us posted on the motor work,. And congrats on Coach, bet he'll love his new home and fit right in. Let's see some pics of him..

 

[69 GTX]

Here's my new little buddy. As you can see he picked us when we went to see him, or was it the treats in my pocket ;0)

 

[daytona kid]

Nice looking pup! He looks smart.. Great to see that you got a rescue, wish more people did that. Someone once told me that our past away pets help us find a new pet. If so looks like Milo made a good choice. He reminds me of my Sally.

 

[69 GTX]

Picked up my rechromed bumpers, I'm very happy with their work!

 

[69 GTX]

Also pulled the trigger on the trick flow heads!

Also pulled the trigger on the trick flow heads!

Let us know what you think...

Ordered S70016KE (1.6 ratio) Harland Sharp rockers for the heads Jim says they are needed for correct geometry.

 

[minnesota guy]

Awesome heads. I have been looking at those!

 

[69 GTX]

I picked up some suspension stuff I dropped off to be blasted & painted. K member, control arms, spindles & brake stuff. 165$ thought that was really fair. Well I'm getting started with my engine build and need to know from you guys do I put it on here or the the drivetrain link? I asked Joey about a engine build link but says not for a couple months. I have the heads & rockers ordered. Tonight rods & pistons.

 

[daytona kid]

I say put the engine build here. Keep everything in one place.
