Re: Project: Bad Bagged '68.5
Hey Jlaird.....The clamps you are using for your brake lines and air line.....made 4 you brand ???? How rough a time did you have bending up the lines, did you make patterns out of steel before you did the stainless ? Any problems flaring the stainless other than having to have a 37 degree flare tool ? Sorry if you have answered the questions elsewhere. Tryin to decide what to do with mine.....really like the way you have yours layed out, gonna steel some of your Ideas.

Re: Project: Bad Bagged '68.5
OK, back to the steering column. I wanted to make a reinforcement panel on the firewall where the column passes through. I gave me an excuse to use my REINFORCED harbor freight bead roller which is now a beast!

Re: Project: Bad Bagged '68.5
Wouldn't all that work to slick out where the column protrudes through the firewall hole appear better w/the nuts on the interior side of the firewall vs. the engine compartment side?

Re: Project: Bad Bagged '68.5
OK, time to smooth out the dash where the dash pad used to go.
I cut these out of a piece of steel exhaust pipe because they had the same curve as the dash. ![]() Tacked in place. ![]() ![]() ![]() Ground smooth. Yes, I'm a Jr. fan. LOL ![]() ![]() |
