Ah! The romance of outlawed red-lead primer!
What do those wheels look like from the front?
Do they use trimrings?

ROMANCE?!?!?Realmongo said:Ah! The romance of outlawed red-lead primer!
Just like the M - 500s, except argent paint instead of chrome, chepsk8 says they used trim rings, but I'm gonna run without......Realmongo said:What do those wheels look like from the front?

65stanger said:I got them from WORTH last year, along with the V-8 spindles, calipers and other parts I needed for the disc brake swap.
Thanks! So's that 8" rear!Realmongo said:They are going to look real good!
I thought you got the spindles from me.

I got TWO sets of spindles that day, theones I got from WORTH had all the disc brake stuff (original '65 equip.) and the ones you gave me have drums. I used the disc brake set-ups and I'm saving the ones I got from you to either "swap meet" or "pay it forward"..............
The "project" for this winter is going to be sort through and separate out and catalog all my "spare" parts.
I discovered yesterday that the problem I was having with the outer tie rod end on the driver's side was because MU sent me the wrong one the first time around....it didn't fit the spindle! The new one I just got in fits perfectly!
Yesterday I also managed to plumb the MC to dist. block, and the dist. block to the front end.....I just have to finish those ends once I install the calipers and hoses, plumb from dist. block to rear (once the undercarraige is done) and bleed the system.
I didn't touch the undercarraige yesterday, I was getting too frustrated the day before in my efforts to get it stripped. (DAMNED red lead!)
Now if the tyres will just come in.....................................
Realmongo said:Are you planning to flush the system and fill it with DOT 5 silicone brake fluid?
StangDreamin' said:Might as well use DOT5....the entire case of DOT3 that Fritz had stashed away was consumed by a couple of Hungry-Gingerbread-Trunk-Monkey-Men at the last Gutter Party
65stanger said:I dunno whether I need to flush or not,
I still have an S-load to do before I have to worry
Man, what chicken $h|t! I set you up with a perfect straight line to slum dunk and you "resist"!StangDreamin' said:Old pal; you have no idea how much "force of will" I'm exercising to keep from commenting right now......
Ladies and gentlemen, this is why I have to clean up for 6-7 days before we have Closet/Gutter parties!65stanger said:I dunno whether I need to flush or not,

Even for Closet Critters and Gutter Goonies?StangDreamin' said:That's just too sick and wrong
StangDreamin' said:Yes, even us.
Idunno, maybe that "Founding Member" stuff is just making me feel.... old.
