Did I miss something?

What happened to the other subframe?

And what's with all of the oil deposits? I know you don't need any corrosion protection out there. ;)

And that rod through the control arm pickup points trick, where'd you learn that from. http://www.speedinfinity.net/forums/...lt/popcorn.gif

Nice work Sieg, keep it up.

Norwood has enough bondo, thankfully it's not lead or he would be 200 lbs. heavier. :sieg:

The first two pictures were taken 5 years ago BF (before fire) after having the motor freshened up and telling the machine shop how much I hate oil leaks, new Milodon pan, timing cover, Felpro one piece silicone gasket, Right Stuff sealant, and assurance that it wouldn't............it only leaks half as much. :bang:

The rod trick came from the masochist of measurement..........I think you know the guy. :rules:

Thanks :thumbsup:

It's leaning against the wall......waiting for social security to fund it. :D

If the subframe comes out, so does the motor and that means upgrades that don't mesh with poor Norwood's current budget limitations. :shakehead:

I thought maybe you'd try the method Customworks used on Glassman's car....

But I get it :D

That was an installer error -- sometimes you DO NOT get what you pay for.... LOL

That should have been a driver re-install.

I finished what the StarBright media couldn't yesterday with my tried and true electric drill and wire wheel.......

I'll treat the uppers and lowers with Ospho today since I had good results on my floorboards prior to painting with POR 15.

If you're not familiar with Ospho, I'd check it out. I've used the product over the last 30+ years and have been very impressed. www.ospho.com

I ordered 3 aerosol cans of POR 15 Top Coat in Chassis Black yesterday so I should have the pieces painted Tuesday night if all goes well.
