    Uncle Ray is going in for round 2

    No, it's my harbor freight flux core. It's ugly but it does the job l, just have to do some extra grinding.

    Uncle Ray is going in for round 2

    A little progress today, won't be anything pretty, but it'll be better that what was there.

    Uncle Ray is going in for round 2

    The passenger side isn't near as bad and all the rot is cut on the driver side. Good enough for today, now it's beer time.

    Uncle Ray is going in for round 2

    I do too. I have no plans on changing them out since I get decent mpg's on the highway and it's got enough get up and go for me.

    Uncle Ray is going in for round 2

    This turned up after I knocked the rest of the undercoating off the inner quarters. The passenger side is in similar shape but not as bad. I'llcut this out and patch as best as I can and won't complain too much since this car had never left western PA.

    Uncle Ray is going in for round 2

    So far this is cleaning up nicely. Found a few small rust holes under the slop, but they're small enough I should be able to clean them up and glob some weld in them. Not like it's going to Barrett Jackson auction anytime soon and a little weld is better than filler IMO. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

    Uncle Ray is going in for round 2

    It's definitely not factory and recent. It's ziebart-like undercoating that's was slathered on there up until the late 80s when it was parked. Believe me the job is a pain in the ***, but the back half has to match the front. Most of it is still soft, but there are areas where it has gotten hard...

    Uncle Ray is going in for round 2

    Decided it was time to park the Fury even though it's still very nice here in western pa. The plan for this winter is to get the sludge cleaned off of the bottom again, patch a few rust spots, clean up the rear end and put new leaf springs on. Started heating and scraping on Friday and I'm...

    ‘71 Fury - Stop light / Fuel doesn’t work

    Hopefully that solves your issue. It's not too difficult to install the new switch.

    ‘71 Fury - Stop light / Fuel doesn’t work

    I had a similar issue with my brake lights as the turn signals and 4 ways would work, but not the brakes. Replaced the brake light switch and nothing. Got this and it solved the problem. And yes it does fit the 71 fury regardless of what Amazon says.

    Thanks guys, I appreciate the input and I'll give the 7 leaf a go.

    ESPO 6 leaf vs. 7 leaf

    I'm putting together parts together for another winter project for the Fury and wanted to get some opinions and comparisons from anyone who has gotten leaf springs through ESPO. I'm definitely going to go with one inch over stock height, but would like to see what two inches over would do. The...

    Carlisle 2023

    Uncle Ray is back home in the garage. My quest for Carlisle is complete. I was great to finally meet a lot of you guys and an honor to park in the best section of the entire field. I hope all of you have/had a safe trip home. Until next year boys

    "uncle Ray" has landed! 222 miles and only used half tank of gas.

    Well, how about that!

    Went out to a few cruises this weekend and "Uncle Ray" ended up winning 500 bucks at the last one. I guess it pays to hang out in the rain! Looking forward to meeting everyone in Carlisle this weekend and getting to park with all the cool kids for the first time this year!
