Careful:twak: :lol:

It is that type of thinking that led me to a full frame chassis and a 3 year project.

Thanks, I went through your build thread today, lots of cool mods!

I am off next week Rob, if my modified Global West upper arms arrive, I will finish that project.

Otherwise I will put the steering column back in, the hydraulic clutch, the man pedal, etc.

I also ordered trim for my pole barn, and I need to finish that up. I ordered a new patio door for my wife and that comes in three weeks from today. When that gets here my first floor remodel begins for her birthday. Then my progress will look like Torino 420's, lol...

Here is the man cave / critter corral...

I got some tin on the barn before the weather dropped to 17*

Then I put in in the steering column. I wish I had taken pictures before, because I put it together, and took it apart three times before I remembered how it went together. It was an automatic column Kasey and I modified, and then painted.

Then I worked on the hydraulic clutch install, with the modified Torino420 system :thumbsup:

That Rosehill Performance SS Hyd line is going to present a problem when I choose my master cylinder.

Got the Man Pedal installed :mock:

And I talked to Doug at Global West today, my modified goodies should ship next week. Maybe in a couple of weeks I can roll it around on the floor :lmao:

Joe

Getting it on the ground will be a great feeling.:thumbsup:

Your steering column rebuild looks nice. I tore one of those apart before :willy:

:cheers:

Looking good! I remember tearing my column apart when I modified it for the RRS rack and pinion, I went through the same confusion getting it back together. Nice work!

I needed to move my Griffin radiator up about 1.250" so I built a prototype bracket. My bend calculation was off as usual, and the bead didn't turn out too straight. I learn from doing this so I will make another.

I need to make the bottom piece, but it will not be seen.

In order to do anything "straight" you need a fence or some kind of guide. No way can you do something like this by hand and expect it to be perfectly straight.

Nice piece… and if you're like me - I'll do it until I get it right and learn a bunch of stuff along the way. Then the first buddy that stops by will say -- Hey dip squat! Why didn't you do it "X" way? And I'll scratch my head and wonder just why I didn't… :>)

BTW --- My daughter would be right out in the shop with me getting dirty and asking "what does that do"? Oh! "How does it work"? "Can we do something like this to my car"?

My son would go to his mother and ask her to pay for someone to modify his car.

Thanks, and I was looking at it thinking, yep I better build a damn fence while I was running it through, lol...

I almost didn't post it, but I knew you guys like pictures

I have all girls, but only one of them like to come out to the garage. Unfortunately she got a job in town, and is working too many hours now. I don't see much of her except when I cant sleep and she is doing homework at zero dark thirty.
