No OEM replacement on there that i could find. A hot roddy billet thing would be nice, but I am trying to keep this thing as factory as possible. I'd still need that super specific gasket though. Nothing left of the original. Maybe wildcat has a new one, might ask them.

Borrowed a buddy and his saw. Turns out the filler neck is not PVC, but fibreglass overtop of steel. My guess is it was leaking or damaged, and they sealed it up with fibreglass. Even after significant violence it's still not coming out of the tank. With that much force no way it's just the...

Started cutting up the left wheel tub. Had to get back to dropping the tank. Cut out all around it and started prying with the breaker bar against the panel seams. Enough force to bend the tank flange, inner quarter and filler neck head and that thing Still wouldn't come out. Then I noticed...

In like Flynn.

Got the tub in. It was a nasty fight this time, I think it warped when i welded in the final patch. So much for nice clean paint. Just as well, apparently the undercoat is very flammable when welding near it. Oh boy. Totally forgot to weld this in before hand as well. Oops. Kinda afraid to...

Good news: It's in! Bad news: It's in. Missed one bit of tape and the whole thing's gotta come out again to get it. Bleh.

Rattlecan restoration is going well. The cap matched well but it seems to turn out a little brighter than advertised. Close enough at least. I think it's finally getting welded in this weekend. For realsies this time. For what i've spent on spray paint, I should've just bought a compressor and...

Trying to figure out the pie cuts on the footwell. Is there a better way to do this? This sucks. Also i was looking at the front stub frame mounting situation. Pretty bad. So bad, I'm not even sure what i'm looking at here. We have a blind locating hole in the stub itself, which mates to...

They say 'dress for the decade you want'.

More tub progress. Been rained out the last few days, next week is looking like rain too. Hopefully I can finish rattlecaning this thing before the rains start. During monsoon season 2, I'm thinking I'll start fabbing the new footwell. I figure the best way to do it is pie cuts on a strip of...

Gettin' there.

Not C body related but here's some more parts ****. The last of my rebuild stuff for my 35 DeSoto Airflow finally came in. I've been tracking down this stuff for 2 years now. This is most likely the last set of .010 mains and rods for a 34-35 Chrysler 6. When you first saw the ring...

Man paint goes quick. Every pass on the quarter panel was a whole can basically. Hit it with 2 coats of zinc primer, all the weld seams with another 2 coats of zinc spray, and then two coats of regular primer with the seams taped over. Couple coats of silver tomorrow, then truck bedliner to...

Went digging through the scrap pile and figured it out. The drip panel does indeed go above the floor and below the tailgate sill. It's also the inner face of the trunk pan, doing a 90 degree bend to tie that whole area into the floor. Someone cut it off at that bend and replaced it with angle...

Does anyone have a wagon? I'm still trying to figure out this weird angle iron mess under the tailgate and it isn't helped by the tailgate being stuck in place for now. I'm not sure if the drip panel welds to the top of the sill or sandwiches between the bottom of the sill and the top of the...

Still plugging away at getting the tub ready for paint. All the firm feel junk showed up finally. Super nice stuff, can't wait to slam it on.

Yeah just the first result in canada. Nascar Road racer for sale in Vernon, Bc, Price: $11,500 here's one more local. As funny as dailying a tripodding late model would be, I'd want the coupe cage anyway. Ways off anyhow

Good thing too, I've decided on my next project. I was talking with a buddy that did late model racing a while ago, and he showed me how cheap used late model circle track cars are. Incredibly fast machines with top dollar motors that can outcorner supercars on road courses, and used, these...

Tacked the quarter together with everything properly located. Tomorrow I'll drop the tub and do it all up final and then do the prep and paint for final install. Feels like i've been about to install the tub for a while now, but it seems we're finally ready. Hopefully the floor just goes...

Got the tub fitting much better. Though strangely the top door jam to tub brace only partially lines up, and I'm not sure why. Though every other mating surface lines up exactly, and i drilled some pilot/screw holes to ensure it can go back in exactly where I want it. Frankly I'm pretty...
