Started on the cpp disc brake and drop spindle! The old spindle removal was a huge PITA.

Installed a IPod stereo set up today. It consists of a Kicker Pxi50.2 controller a Kicker HS8 powered subwoofer and a pair of 4" 2-way speakers mounted in a pair of moulded plastic Versa-pods. The sound is incredible and it is totally hidden from view.

Put on my new visors, wipers and cleaned up the heater box and put in a new core. Now I have heat just in time for summer. :devil:

To say that I did this today would be a lie. It has taken me about a month. Removed the original rad and installed new aluminum, lost the old broken shroud and noisy fan and installed an electric fan. Also removed the leaking LMC master cylinder and put new mc and reconditioned booster.
Hope everyone has a relaxing Easter Weekend.

Started blasting my new to me rear end. I didn't have a lot of time so I just messed around for a bit. I am using a HF 50 lb blaster. I just wish I had a bigger compressor. It will take a couple of hours to get it done but it will look good. I'm going to put new seals in it por 15 it and put on a chrome cover and olts. The brakes will be all new and new u joints. I'm also having the trailing arms powdercoated and new bushings and bolts. 1st pic is half blasted pumpkin 2nd pic is the axle tube kinda blasted.

What are your compressor specs? I've got a single stage 60 gal, 135psi. I wonder if that's enough for occasional blasting...

Mine is a 25 gal 125 psi. It will work but its going to take a while because I will have to stop and wait for it to refill.

Mine is only 4.3 at 90. Its good for about 30 seconds at a time. :lol: Maybe time to go get a new compressor.
