Just outstanding... I love seeing the updates on this build!

Great to see some real progress - I’ll use this as pressure to make some progress on mine as well. Still no engine built, I just want to get her on the road again. Congrats!

Thanks, guys, Over the next few days, I'll see about checking the diagonal dimension from the outriggers to the front center hole as shown on the diagram above. The FSM checking points are a little different, but should help confirm that things are in or out of square. I've also clamped a...

Looking for chassis repair dimensions, so hopefully "restoration" is the right area for this post. I have a question for folks with frame repair experience. At some point in the past, my car met something pretty sturdy and the passenger fender & hood were replaced. The front frame horns were...

If you can look past the ugly, the starter shield is mounted here: Engine_and_Transmission_Details by clair_davis, on Flickr Not sure about the starter, but I think I was the first person to separate the engine from the trans on my car... Hate to hear that about Calvert. I didn't get a good...

Just for another data point, here's the torque converter behind my '68 Sport Fury's HP440: Engine_and_Transmission_Details by clair_davis, on Flickr I don't have a lot of other examples of original engine paint, but I'm not sure that the trans was ever separated from the engine.

Got the MC/booster removed yesterday, boxed up and ready to go when i talk to Dewey on Monday. Definitely painted black. Brake_Booster-10 by clair_davis, on Flickr The reinforcement plate on the firewall was very nearly gloss black. Brake_Booster-09 by clair_davis, on Flickr The gasket at...

Thanks, Dave, That's where I'm heading. If they don't spray it, I'm OK with that, I can handle satin black. I can't handle zinc chromate though, so that's good info. I assume they'd know what to do since they're in the business, but I'd rather know before going in and not leave the choice...

Hey, Folks... I've got a restoration question. 1968 Sport Fury, power disc brakes (Budd). I'm about to send my brake power booster out to be rebuilt, and I want to confirm the original finish. It looks like it was probably painted black, but I would make sure it wasn't plated or some other...

Subscribed because so much like mine... and Texas.

Thanks, HWY, I actually bought the lower & upper bearings from Bill Rolik the other day... going to replace them all while I’m in there. Will probably start on that project in the next week or so.

The price for these went up in January: Reproduction Rear Seat Speaker Grills-for 69-70 C Body Convertibles Just got my invoice, and production costs are now up again, $116 shipped. That's a lot for a small part - but it's nice looking.

Thanks, Alan, that's pretty much what I expected mine to look like, and should have two screws as well. I couldn't tell if the one on my car had a proper bearing at one point, or if that black ring was it.

With column-shift auto, what is the proper lower column bearing for this car? Mine's a little toast: Steering_Column_Bearing by clair_davis, on Flickr I've seen the usual B/E body reproductions - is one of those applications correct for the Fury? Not sure why this part would be wildly...

Does anyone reproduce the red 440 insert for those ornaments? The one on my car has no insert but is otherwise in nice shape...

Fixed... I forget about Imperial Services, but good to hear about the problems...
