Popular Post ConVerTT Posted January 8 Author Popular Post Share #422 Posted January 8 Flipped over to the DS and made a little more progress... Still finding lots of clean metal. A little spot along the firewall is going to need some TLC (I've already got a plan LOL) The rest of the Firewall is coming along nicely...got most of the paint stripped at least... Under the battery tray is looking better than expected ....before... After...Needs more blasting but ran out of air again ....but looks pretty serviceable with some minor patchwork... So far so good....fingers crossed.... PS: and the worm gear drive on the rotiserrie? Priceless 😉 (just in case you were wondering LOL) 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConVerTT Posted January 24 Author Share #423 Posted January 24 Got a clean bottom 😉 ... a few more sessions and she'll be clean! And she's surprisingly not horrible .... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ConVerTT Posted February 7 Author Popular Post Share #424 Posted February 7 Well... she's blasted and tent is disassembled ... now to finish the remaining rust repair and test fit everything. I hope to have a roller in March sometime... I did not try to blast the roof section. I'll be using the Eastwood Contour SCT instead when it's time ... It looks a lot better than I thought it would actually. Cleaned up nice !!! And started test fitting some of the ApexEngineered bits...Here are some teasers...Full review to follow... And last but not least...Black Friday BC Racing weld on coilovers showed up... right on time 😉 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ConVerTT Posted February 13 Author Popular Post Share #431 Posted February 13 (edited) Getting ready to weld the compression rod boxes back on to the new front rails. Even though I have the factory dimensions I deliberately waited to have the Apex Engineered K frame in hand to "cheat" and help line everything up... Funny thing about letting a project sit ... I decided I didn't like how I had done the compression box supports so ... more surgery .... Also... the Apex rear subframe interferes with the spare tire well... so I notched it and roughed in the patch as well ... and finally...rebuilt the floor supports from 14 Gauge sheet metal...belt and suspenders 😉 Just about out of Clecos so going to have to crack out the welder and then loop back and finish up the remaining patches...
