    Pulling to the left on 71 Newport

    Small update. I visited the national safety vehicle inspection center. They test the wheel drag on powered rollers, brake effectiveness and if equal on both sides. Everything perfect. So the next step was the shake and pull test of suspension and steering componets. All was tight , except one...

    1968 Newport 4dr Hardtop restore (NL)

    Excellent work. Thank you for the write up. I am not into the mixer setup since it is very old school, but you have me fascinated on the fuel injection plans with lpg. Please keep us updated on this, since it is something i would definately take into account transitioning to lpg.
