Right Place?

The car sounds great!!!

Been messin with the plastic parts for a few days now, gotta get a usable set of tail lights outta this mess, the splash shields are ok(minor flaws) & the bumper guard rubbers may actually work(sanded off all the dings & cleared em)

[RUSTY Cuda]

Now these door panels are acient history( started on em 4 years ago) lets just say they were garbage, chalky, deep gouges generally ready for the trash, being bored one day I cleaned em up, put a coat a por 15 on em(stuff said flexible right ) then primed & sanded till I had some flat surfaces(gouges out) now there's no grain left, but since the budget is gone, I can hope they come out decent enough to use for a while?
So today I pulled one out cleaned it up & shot it with semi flat black, still some sanding marks, but a little more sanding & paint & I think I can use them & not be too embarrest by my work? Rich.

Great job Rusty!  Those panels will be alot better than no panels at all!   

[RUSTY Cuda]

Tis true, been riding around in the 74 with no panels, a little rough on the elbows!  Rich.

Ok, so with the nice weather I figgered I'd try & touch up the tail panel, wrong, either I waited too long or not long enough, paint blistered in a few spots, she's back in primer again!

[RUSTY Cuda]

On the half good side I got HALF the brake stuff I ordered, por15'd the rotors & one drum that showed, clear coated the rest. more parts in by tues. only thing they couldn't locate was the front cable for the emergency brake, anyone see those around(the one that goes right to the pedal assembly!

[RUSTY Cuda]

Interior panels will do for now, lots a little flaws, but not knowing if the paint will even stay on there good enough for now, if it holds up a good while I can sand out the flaws & shoot em again, or better yet, find decent ones!  Rich.

[RUSTY Cuda]

Finally got most of the parts, finished up the other side of the front today, with the added warmth of my LJ's only my hands suffered!     hard to greese bearings with gloves on!
was gonna move to the rear but it started snowing, so I moved back into  the shop.

[RUSTY Cuda]

had just enough time left to set up one of the rears, looks like I got the right parts this time, now I hope I put them on right!

RC, Don't forget to GREASE the Brakes.... NAPA carries Sil-Glyde for the purpose

[RUSTY Cuda]

You mean the contact points on the backing plates & the cable guide?  well thats the places I noted in the service manuel. any others? Rich.

     Yea and on disks the piston to pad & anywhere metal moves. When I ask the kid at Advance Auto he looked at me like I wuz kerazie but the NAPA folks knew just what I was asking for.

a lot of the brakes come with it, or they ask if you want it...not sure its the same brand, but its the same idea.

[RUSTY Cuda]

Rears are in, so the wheels are done, next up is the master & the last few lines in the bay. on the e-brake I'm waiting on the intermediate & front cables, then bleed em up! Then maybe, just maybe I'll have brakes! Rich.
