Road Runner Nest

I know i havent come on for a very long time but i have to travel almost 100 miles a day to work so not much time for internet

so far i have finally got the engine completed


too many parts to list everything other than the pistons and crank and timing chain cover have been replaced and i mean everything

also found that all the bearings were shot in the diff and it was just killing the unit,so again apart from the 3,91s and the case [489 case] everything was replaced even put a new tail on it even a dana style locker in there,also new green bearings were installed on the half shafts




i ripped apart the gearbox and installed the recon kit put it back together chucked some paint on [some drips that need sorting] and walla


everything apart from the engine was caked in grim gease and oil to give you an idea i also stripped down and repainted the rear end the match the diff.i have new shocks a new steering box and new steering componants yet to instal also have to take the Kmember out to weld a bit of chassis while that is out i shall give that a bit of work and paint him silver all the suspension componants etc will be painted white

Keep us posted...

Just to give you an idea this is the gearbox obviously just after i got it out,this was about the cleanest thing on the car and it took hours with the scrubber and degreaser

Looks great soo far man keep up the awsome work

i have just fineshd with the filler on the wing a hole 3 inch wide by about 2 high,

Next year i am hoping to either replace or have the wings acid dipped along with the inners and the doors i shall then leave the front end in primer untill i can get the new rear quarters floor pans and boot floor.

I am trying to keep him on the road as much as possible while im doing this,although he has been off the road 1 year and 1 month already
