My Dad has a pressure pot blaster that he's had for longer than I've been alive.

It's a Lindsay brand and looks about like this only much more worn looking!

Nice progress Brandon, did you buy the frame table from Billy?? If so do mind sharing how much? I will have a need for one very soon.

Thanks - I did get the frame table from Billy. I honestly don't remember exactly how much. He was making another 1 or 2 of them at the same time and cut me pretty good deal. You'd have to shoot him a message to see if he's going to be building any more and what the price would be. I know he's really busy, so not sure when he'd pull away from customer projects in the shop to build more. I think I may have gotten lucky and caught him at just the right time.

Once I get my car far enough along, maybe I'll rent you mine!

I love the frame table. I wish I had one of those. I got a big laugh out of your daughter recognizing one side had 12 spot welds and the other side didn't. Makes you wonder what the guy at the factory was thinking/doing when he installed it. I wonder if was an early Monday morning or late Friday car?
I just realized I didn't respond to your questions. The firewall and cowl is a rusty mess -- it will all get replaced.

I think what happened on that quarter was that the inner structure for the latch was placed incorrectly and they flexed it into place and then spot-welded the hell out of the quarter to hold it where it belonged.

Well - -it appears that Facebook changed all of the image URL's so none of my pictures show up. I'll try to get them back up using Google + and add some of the new ones.... Damn Facebook - - arghhhhh!

Not sure if anyone can see these, but here is a link to the album on FB.

Here is a public album that I'll be putting all of the pictures in. They are out of order right now, but I'll try to reorder them as I have time.

I will try to update with the latest progress this week as I have time. The Rear DSE Quadralink and mini-tubs are pretty much tack welded and/or screwed into place along with the quarters and tail panel. I've had a few "learning" along the way that I'll try to pass along to anyone else that may be dumb enough to save a car that is this far gone.

I have a few minutes at lunch so I figured I'd post a few updates. I'll try to catch the thread up over the course of the next week or so.

Framerails located



Trunk Pan Test Fitting



Disassembly, repair and reconstruction of the rear set drop-off and stock shock x-member. I think at some point this car tossed a driveshaft - - looked like someone went nuts with a sledgehammer!

More test fitting. I may just start tossing pictures in without a ton of commentary to get caught up more quickly. If you have questions, let me know. I'm trying to keep them in close to chronological order.
