Can't wait to get my hands on one Ken!!

Mozz in Oz!!  :aussie: :burnout:
Hi Mozz,

When i find some time i will be back on to these shifters, i really need to get this project out and share with all others how good my shifters are, they are so nice to use. I just have been really busy with work related projects that i have not had time to touch these again yet, but over the Christmas break i will find the required time and make this thing happen.
I will post up pictures when i have more progress, that you can be sure of.
This is what has taken up my spare time at the moment plus i do have another job i am working on for a guy that takes up my actual work time. I made the two frame jigs up to help with my restoration work, and they truly are the best investment in time and money i have put together, they are awesome to work around and on a car, and both the Pink frame holding a 1970 Challenger convertible and Green frame holding a 1970 Barracuda hardtop are E-body only jigs that accept both Challenger and Barracuda platforms on each, as each are adjustable.

Thanks Mozz :wave:
Kenny :bigsmile:

Ken,

Frikken big jobs matey!!  All good I aint goin' nowheres!  I have the bright ware off the car and down to my mate Francis Paul at Auto Bling in Braeside.  His work is awsum. Fixed the headlamp buckets and they came up better than new.  Re anodised and polished. next is the stainless stuff and while its in the shop I am addressing the paint fault issues. Off comes the dash pad and down to the Dashboard Doctor in Coburg. Off with the rocker covers for a polish and the manifolds to be coated, the plugs replaced, all carby stuff off and cleaned, paint the motor, new brake booster, general underhood tart up, battery leads spark leads and general wiring.  Out with seats and carpet, install new firewall pad and under felt. New rear tail lenses, and thats about it!!!  Ohh and two new tyres for the front and Rallyes all round!!!

Mozz in Ozz!!! :aussie: :burnout:

Those jigs are awesome! 
They will definitely keep the car square while working the metal out.

Can't wait to see some more work on those shifters!

What's the originals on that chally?

Hi Josh,

Thanks for noticing mu frame Jigs. Best time i ever spent. :2thumbs:

As for the Challenger Convertible, that is a customers car, factory EW1 White exterior with a Red interior car-going back to this colour combo, was a 318 Auto getting changed to Gen3 Hemi 5.7 or 6.1 and may go with a 518 Auto behind it, he wants it to be a driver. :wave:

I am in no hurry as yet.  Paul doesn't have any.  Mine are ok but new ones would be better.
