    Cudahob's work completed June 6
    « on: June 05, 2006 - 03:47:14 PM »
    Before and after pictures of a dirty job. I used a heat gun, scraper and Simple Green to remove the under coating. The primer is just there as a picture contrast. 

    Now it's off to the media blasters.  :woohoo:

    Looks great Cudahob!  I have a feeling that wasn't the most fun job in the world!

    Thanks guys, and thanks to Hemidog for the use of his whirly gig. Goes to show you how far CC members will go to give you a hand.  :clapping:
    Couldn't have done the job without him.

    Looks like you already had the subframe connectors.  Did you do those or were they already on there?  I plan on putting em on before going on the rotisserie for support.  Did you notice any flex when you mounted your car?

    I bought it that way, they did a good job putting them in; zero flex, surprisingly.

    I would have thought twice if it didn't have them on. Most of the rust is on the surface, body and frame are solid as a rock.

    It does need new metal in the 1/4s and trunk; I'm also putting on some torque boxes on, and a beefed up new K member.  :thumbsup:

     :thumbsup: Some good but not too pleasent progress there Cudahob, I need something similary to put the land yacht C body on, will something like that streach out to accomodate a 69 C body? That sure would make that kind of work a whole lot better than sitting the car on 50 gal barrels and crawling around.

    I don't think that one would, it's close to the limits now. I'm sure they make one though.
