Re: '66 Sunbeam Minx Project - F20C/6sp/4-link/Discs...
thanks FF. DAMN that looks AMAZING!!. your work never ceases to amaze me FF. can't wait till you get everything all blown apart, sprayed up and finished. can i ask you a question. do you get rust flashover in oregon? how long can you leave it as bare metal before it starts to surface rust? i'm thinking years, unlike here.

No worries Steve. Sweet project, and nice truck too! I'm going to have to peruse that site some more.
S2000 PCD is 5x114.3mm or 5x4.5" Last edited by Frizzle Fry; 12-16-2009 at 02:17 PM. |

Re: '66 Sunbeam Minx Project - F20C/6sp/4-link/Discs...
That is a great site. English based, so a lot of the cars are English, but there are also a lot of Japanese cars too. I'm English so the draw is obvious. Thanks for the kudos on my old broad, she's now as reliable as a hammer.
Some of the things those Brits do in single sized mini garages and with a hammer and a cheap harbor freight welder is truly amazing. -Steve

Re: '66 Sunbeam Minx Project - F20C/6sp/4-link/Discs...
It doesn't seem to be a problem here. We just don't have enough heat/humidity I suppose. I have bare metal on the 61 that has been exposed for years without showing any sign of flash/rust. I'm sure it's no longer perfectly clean though.

Re: '66 Sunbeam Minx Project - F20C/6sp/4-link/Discs...
I was looking through the 400 pages of pics you have (yeah, I had a little time to kill), but I saw the pics of when you moved the shifter on the output housing of the trans. I see where you cut it off, but I did not find any pics of how you re-attached the "shifter receptacle" to the trans.
So, how'd you do it??

I have the PS frame rail fully integrated. Still a little clean up to do on the top and all of the underside. Here's the photobucket link until I'm out of the bandwidth doghouse ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by Frizzle Fry; 12-21-2009 at 05:59 AM. |

Re: '66 Sunbeam Minx Project - F20C/6sp/4-link/Discs...
Thanks guys. Feels great to have one side complete. The other side should be smooth sailing when I get back to it in Jan 2010. The marked area on the framerail is where the header is close and may need to be relieved slightly.

I've seen that build and talked to the builder. Nice guy, and a nice car. I'd say that the one that runs wins
