Default New parts

Hello again,

In the previous threads, I forget to tell you a bit about me, but i don't think it's very interesting...
I prefer to talk about my Skylark which came from California where an old lady bought it in 1972...then it had some different owners until i bought six years ago. It made the trip to here in Belgium where i drive it as soon as the weather allows (i don't like to drive it under the rain).
so, now i just received some parts i ordered in your country...
-The 2.5 Flowmaster exhaust with Super 40 mufflers
-The Hotchkiss front sway-bar
-The Eibach springs
-a TCI pan for the gearbox
-B&M Pro-Stick shifter
-Prothane mounting bushing (i know it is for a chevelle, but i will try to fit them on the Skylark as there is no kit for that Buick!)
-a black Moroso air filter

The salt flat AR are in process of being built as the Baer discs, i have also a new aluminium radiator with dual 16"fan , down pipes ordered by TA Performance....but all these parts will be ship by container which will leave as soon as all the parts arrive.

I hope to have everything by the end of october....to start the work on the car...
The frame will be sandblasted and painted in black epoxy, every rubber will be replaced by urethane, the 4 discs will be fitted, the 2 sway-bars, the Eaton LSD, the underside of the body will be painted (Burnished Copper)and as well as the engine bay(and firewall) which will also be smoothed.

I will keep you advised....
Bye bye
David
