Saturdays Progress...
Well, I spent some time with my head in the sandblaster and baking some powdercoating. I powdercoated the bracket for the windshield washer fluid bottle and the two brackets for the top of the radiator. Sorry I didn't take some before pictures, but I am sure that everyone knows what 36 year old brackets look like.
 Here is a link to todays powdercoating project: http://www.1970cst10.com/powdercoat/ Cheers,

and all it took was 5 trips to kragen and rotating the dist 380*. i do need a new flex plate too, the one that came with it has a big flat spot on it and i can only get one revolution per start, then i have to crawl under and rotate it past and try again. i have another but its for the large converter pattern only, no matter what i have to pul the tranny out again. |

Re: Saturdays Progress...
It looks good, but it takes soooo long. Slow progress is better than no progress...

Re: Saturdays Progress...
Looks good, better than my try at them. Once I get a shop I'm gonna get back into it, but nothing pisses me off more than a nice shiney black part drying in the sun when a bug lands on it and sticks!
