This year's project is complete! The rear settled nicely after I put the bumper on and put some gas in the tank. Took it for a couple laps around town and the ESPO springs and the KYB shocks are a great combo. Now, I'll be waiting waiting for Carlisle!

Thank you!

Back in business!

Thank you! And that's correct, my door tag is 5-71.

You're welcome! I used rust seal on mine. Seems like basically the same concept. Brushed and rolled also and it was a ton of work.

Some before and after action. Before: original springs and shitty Monroe coil overs. After: espo 2 inch over stock and KYB KG 5413 shocks. I know it's not everyone's flavor of "stance" but it looks pretty sweet to me.

This is great! Almost exactly what I'm doing. What did you use to paint the underside?

Not a '70 but my '71 Fury is from the Newark plant.

I had other things to do today, but this seemed way more important :rofl:

Finally done underneath! My poor creeper took hell of a beating haha! Put a satin top coat on the bottom and the wheel wells got 3 coats of rust oleum farm and implement with a bit of enamel hardener, worked great on the stub frame, so we'll see how it holds up back here. Plan is to pecker...

The underside is pretty much wrapped up and the rear got a high quality 50 foot paint job.

Well, I'm still at it. I've been chipping away at this anytime I get a chance to. It was nice that the mill was slow for awhile I got a lot accomplished. Working two 16 hour shifts and an 8 hour shift for the week was nice while it lasted. Anyways, I had to patch up the wheel wells, yes I...

This came out nice. Popped the cover to check the condition of the gears and this car was never abused judging on how great they looked. So it got the "send it" seal of approval and buttoned back up.

I did a good job of keeping myself occupied this weekend. Rear is out, scraped and cleaned up a bit and I didn't break the rear shackles. God bless Kroil:rofl:

That's a wrap for this section. I'm pretty happy how it came out considering my very basic selection of tools the HF flux core, ball peen hammer and bench vise. Nex,t the rear end is coming out for a good look over and new springs and I'll finish up scraping the slop from underneath.

Thank you!

After a few tweaks I'm happy with the fit. Now to do the exact same thing for the passenger side.

Started working on the rear cross member and it's coming together. I made a pattern out of what was left of the outer portion, don't know if it's 100% correct, but it seems like it will work out with very little tweaking.

I'm starting to get pretty OK at this.

Thank you! Yes it's possible especially when you dont feel like dumping a ton of money into a mig setup. It takes a bit of trial and error, but I'm finding using the max setting with a 2.75 - 3 on the wire speed and .030 wire is giving me the best results so far. I do get some burn through, but...
