Made some progress this weekend...Still not done!

Worked on the 72 Daily driver for a couple hours this weekend. Doing the upper and lower balljoints, inner and outer tierods and putting lowering springs in the front...Already finished the rear. I still have to take off the lower A-arms and press out the old balljoints and press in the new ones...After that it will go back together pretty quickly.

I am hoping it will drive like a dream when I get all this unplanned work done

Man taking off the lower arms was a &%*($& if you know what I mean. My susp was so nasty I just cut the ubolts off to make life easier.

My whole front end is off now, getting the arms and such blasted so can paint...got a load of POR15 waiting in the garage!

Looks like the '72 is missing it's two front teeth.

You know that you're still going to have to mount that Blue Bowtie somewhere on the front of that thing don't ya? Ya can't go anywhere without that! That's like leaving your fly down or something.
