Patcon

I recently aquired this because I hate spot welds and I thought it might help out. I found this one at a great deal on Ebay. We will see... Air powered and has a rear lever for applying pressure. Adjustable depth, so you can just drill through the top layer(s)

I would think the welded patch and the brazed patch were two different repairs. I agree a little reinforcement is in order before the rotisserie! Looked like a number of patches under the drivers seat too...

TT convertible sounds like fun!

The factory tray is a good bit different with the edges of the cut outs beaded down and the support is a compund type shape with no cutouts

Nope!!!

Ditto! I would look at two pieces, The battery tray itself and the compound curve area under the battery tray. It is fairly hard to fabricate with out a "wheel"

Maybe it's a clearance issue for the cowl? The screw being a lower profile than the bolt...

That's cheap! Any problems getting all the parts back? I know sometimes small parts are an issue for larger platers...

Ummmmmm...No We shall remain bondless...

Don't get caught on the other side of that wall, 2 years in prison on first offense, 10 on the second...

Beautiful bird!! Aspen, Nome...

What provoked the engine swap? I knew you received the engine, but what was wrong with the existing engine?

Very nice Steve! No bolt in the cherry picker arm?

No,No Sounds like fun! That's great. CZC is just one big family! Bond for everyone...

That's funny! A lot of guys here are, my poke at them...

You gonna run the LD28 intake? I have thought about doing that...

Finding an acid resistant pump can be an issue. I bought a cheap parts washer to use with a rust remover. The rust remover ate the pump internals...

Is that an LD28 intake?

I may do that. I have sourced a couple of sets but wouldn't mind a spare set

I won't be using any urethane bushings on my build. By the way take good care of that splash pan. They are hard to find in that kind of condition and priced accordingly

Oh, I have anvil envy now!!! That's bad...

I think that's what I would do too...

Doohhh!!!

Will be interesting to see what it brings. A nice complete driver type car but still has some rust issues. already $9k...

Lots of people think no thermostat is the way to go, but engineers are smarter than most people give them credit for... At least some are... By the looks of the color in the housing you could use some good antifreeze in it too, to prevent the block from rusting...
