Wollfen's 1970 Plymouth Sport Fury S23

[Wollfen]

Lastly a little bit of a surprise. I mentioned earlier I would have something to ad regarding the radiator support. Well, here it is, primed then painted in the final color of the car. Looks pretty good. I put up two pics of it painted, the first one is of it without the flash of the camera and probably a better representation of the final color and then the second pic is of it with the flash of the camera. Just for comparison.

Okay, so I disassembled the column and put it back together again correctly. Here it is, now put into storage too, covered up for when the car is ready for it. Then I puled out the 5 AC boxes I had and picked out a suitable unit which I tested with air pressure as well as hot water. This one passes the test and i will be using it. I will check each of the vacuum canisters too and repair whatever is necessary.

I’m in the middle of the ac box rebuild as well. Not sure if you are going to crack open that box since it looks clean, but I just picked up the DMT rebuild kit and it looks pretty complete.

Normally I would pull it apart but as you say, it looks clean, and it does. I am going to clean it up a little and make sure everything works then simply put it aside for when I'm ready to fit it.
I am curious to see pics of the DMT kit though, are there pics on a website of the kit in question?

And today the primer filler went on, and i bought a couple of hundred sanding disks for my air sander, stay tuned....

 

[Wollfen]

Oh and i also did the black in the front of the radiator support too. Progress progress.

Looking good Gary. I look forward to seeing it when I come down.

 

[Wollfen]

Got some disk brake work done, last of the new parts arrived today so this will be finished very soon. Suspension parts are all painted.

I saw this car Sunday while down at Gary’s shop. Third time I’ve seen it. This car was rough & Gary has done remarkable work. Not too many people have the skills let alone the desire to do this level of quality work to a C body car.

I can attest to Gary's excellent work too, on my cars and others.

Rotors are cleaned up and ready to fit, will put new seals in the rear and repack the bearings with grease before assembling. They are very nice original units.

Ah, 2 good looking cars sitting side by side, can't wait to see them in the flesh. Gary, looking forward to hitting your part of the world next month mate (been a long time coming, first visit back to the good ol' US since 2009). Have missed my dose of the US

Aidan helped me play musical chairs, I mean cars and the S23 is now in the main workshop. Winter will be slow so I will tinker on smaller stuff on it for now.
