Thanks for the warm welcome guys

Kasey is a great helper, and a good wrench. She will be 18 on Veterans day (Semper Fi). She did get an alternate car to drive.

BTW, I do know Jason (Torino420) from the Torino forum. The picture of the clutch pedal linkage, and master cylinder setup is copied from his design.

I do have a few more pictures I can post.



My tunnel mod, I will replace all my front floor pans someday, and this too.
Still learning to weld.



Apparently this makes me a new recruit in the "Jackstand Army"?

Those Torinos are good looking cars.

Joe, if you post enough pics, you can pretty much do anything you want on here.

Welcome Joe, look forward to your updates.

If we keep this up, we'll start seeing "just another Torino threads" around here.

proprietary drop for Global West upper arms is done. everything is cleaned up and painted, and a light coat of undercoating applied.



spindles cleaned up, read for paint,



the "great pumpkins" door jambs look like heck. You would have thought they could have wiped them down with lacquer thinner before applying the Elway Orange. I need a spring on my lower hing due to my doors not staying open.

Joe that's the way to build some Torino momentum.
Hand crafted jackstands, you are a cut above

What do you have planned for brakes? What color do you plan on painting it if you get rid of the "pumpkin"?
