They were posted on a Motorcycle Forum I belong to. Another one is they use Pledge to polish there bikes. It's like a quick detailer for paint, chrome, and rubber. Who would think?

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

I used Lemon Pledge in the days before ArmorAll & such. Another good thing about using pledge, it promote seat belt usage. Your butt will slide ALL OVER if you are not strapped in. :lol:

No replacement........for displacement.....

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

eeeehm displacement of air.............. a small(er) motor with forced induction (turbo or blower) can make enourmous power

I really worked on it yesterday. I finished welding up the drip rail, and filled the dash speaker hole. Sunday I'll put some mud on it.
Picture to come so I can prove it. :lol:

Welded up the seam after I hammered over the drip rail, and tried not to warp the roof.

Drip rail rough finish. Need to do a final finishing, but it was too hot, and the Bondo was drying too fast. Need to do it early in the morning.

I am guessing the two ducts are defrost vents.
Cool idea's in this build.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

I detailed the top of this 292 Y Block & enging compartment from that 57 Ranchero you see in the back ground. I also welded up 2 holes in the air cleaner top, and stripped off 3 different colors of paint down to bare metal then painted it gold. Just have to finish the ign wires. Looks good for a F*RD.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Thanks, and Yup, I'll either use these or the stock ones. :metal:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

I'm really thinking of poaching that drip rail idea now that I see it smoothed out. Make sure you post up pics after you prime it out. I can't wait so see it somewhat finished.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

You know I will Greg. I love the way it looks so far, :metal:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

I cant wait for start my truck. Let me know when I can bring it over.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Do you have everything you need? I still have to finish this Ranchero, and install a power brake unit on a Mustang. I've been waiting for parts. How about some time next week? Call me tomorrow.
