Re: project 62
Yea i got the ones it came with. But with the quality you've showed on this project, I know you will come up with something better. I am working on an electronic latching system for mine now. I want to use actuators to raise and lower the front end, and solenoids and limit switches for the latching. I'll keep an eye out for this thread as you go along.

Re: project 62
Well thanks i appreciate it!
I had a latch in the center with two gas shocks, similar to a camaros rear hatch and it worked pretty good but these hoods really need 2 latches on each side. I used the hood pins before but was thinking i could come up with something a little better. |

Re: project 62
WOW!
Glad to hear that your dad's ok. If he's the litigious type- he could be well on his way to having a new truck for each day of the week.

Yeah he wasn't mad until reality set in and he lost a truck that was paid for and or he could have been killed because someone wasn't paying attention.

Re: project 62
Scott,
Glad your Dad and the deputy are okay. Could have been a whole lot worse. Tell your dad to get someone to represent him and not try to handle this on his own....

Re: project 62
Figure out how to make it public. Call a news station and get them to do a story. Community pressure is a beast.

Re: project 62
Keep the pressure on them. For my accident they gave me this whole speech how they would do this huge investigation and an accident computer simulation to determine the fault. When it was all said and done the police report was less then a half page and basically said his light where on and therefore it was my fault.

Re: project 62
I know what you mean, I haven,t worked on my 59 in about 8 months. I worked out of town from October to March (Vegas it was nice). Then with all my overtime money I decided to Procharge my Corvette. Now I bought a 60 Chevy shop truck. And of course i can't leave things alone. I'll be getting back on it as the weather gets a little cooler.

Re: project 62
It's easier to find things if they are scattered around instead of all being stacked on top of each other in one place!
