Time to get back at it...

I needed to complete the tunnel mod for the 5 speed, and finish the floorpan before finishing the torque arm.

I got the pan pulled out to finish the rocker area prep for final welding. Hoping to have the pan back in and finished in a couple of weeks.

The wheels turned out super nice.

Thanks Marcus!

I see you got one of this doo-dads for wheel offset measuring. I wanted too but had way too many other needs . I ended up making jigs, holding squares, tape measures and little dogs :-)

Joe, this one isn't mine. I borrowed it from a buddy who has a shop and uses it all the time that warrants the need to buy one. I would only need it this one time and therefore, weren't willing to spend the coin either. I, too, have way too many needs as well. I almost had a heart attack when I was quoted a price on a custom exhaust system. :faint::faint:

Haven't got much done between building 500' new cattle fence, snow shoveling, etc...

Still working on upper coil over shock mount and PanHard bar mounting to frame rail. I also made a coil over jig and lightened up a 9" carrier for torque arm install.

Car is on a rotisserie so I am using Jason torino420's pictures for approximate ride height. I'm tacking everything in until I can get it flipped over for a better measurement.

A couple of pics.

it's been a long summer working on the acreage but I am finally back at it on the Torino.

My wife Joni helped me yesterday, we worked 7 hours removing the rotisserie and installing the P-ayr block and TKO 5 speed.

Had to get it on the ground to check transmission and differential angles for a final weld :weld: on the Speedtech brackets.

I got to figure out this picture sizing process. Apparently all I did was decrease the pixels and not the size :bang:

What program are you using to resize them? You can send them to me if you need help.

Thanks Jody, I was just doing it on a MacBook Air using "preview" then "duplicate"

What is a good size for this site?

I appreciate the offer, I was just going to google it later tonight after I clean my shop.

Joe
