Thanks Jeff,

I'm really interested in hydroboost. I like how it looks too. Did you use a special power steering pump (higher volume)? or a std? I read you might want to go HV to see full performance, again, i know squat 'bout those systems.

RED,

I spoke with the guy today (His name is Pierre/Pete) he actually is an ingineer so it was cool talking to him but he lost me from time to time with a few 20 letter words He was interesting to listen. He explained that the zinc is only actually a finish, it will dissapear the instant brakes will be applied (only where the pads rub) but that the rest (vents, center etc) will stay like new for a long time. So it sounds interesting. He told me the name of the company that does this and they are on my way a few times a week so i'll call and go see, because they offer 3 colours he told me. The price is a minimum 70$ charge so i could get some more parts to be done depending on what is their max parts allowed for the said 70$

Hope this clears some of it up.

They do black...it might be cool (others are yello and clear) I asked about the kinda silver we usually see and he said that thats the regular color...That was not too clear. I'll go and see.

We got a major ice storm today/tonight, half of the province is out of electricity (not us!) and i had a few buildings that we're out of it so it was a pretty busy day...(I manage/ build elderly houses for/ with my Dad, HEAT was the main concern here) Everything is fine now...But the shop is closed :-(

Lead.

Oh, you car looks like a great project! Got pics of the ragtop? what are you planning for it. I really want one of those big cruisers, i'd like a 62-65 Impala HT or rag, i don't care. Love 'em anyway.
