Two extra doors and a lower price tag, I'll take it! Cool story.

Well, I can't offer any more advice on the issue; things are well covered by our wise forum members. So I'll just throw in some more encouragement: This absolutely sucks, no doubt about it. But, you have a beautiful '62, with great, unique colors, stickshift; I mean that thing is awesome! You...

Here's a few pic's of my '59 crossmember. My car only had a mount for one arm on the frame, so I built a crossmember and added those Global West braces and some other bracing as well. Boxed and reinforced the lower arm mounts too. And did a bunch of reinforcing to the X, as I cut some of the...

I'm going to run these on my '59 Bel Air, along with some other reinforcements. https://www.globalwest.net/ts-84l.html

Don't beat yourself up, something will click and get you going again. I'm the same way, and I have a '59 Bel Air 2-door post project I'm in the middle of - that I haven't touched in well over a year. Life got in the way, a few injuries got in the way, and plain old...

Awesome! That's a big relief, thanks for checking on him, Phil!.

I've talked to him a few times at Strat's, which is where I'm going tomorrow night. Nice man, and a cool "Delray" too.

Anyone heard from Mike, A.K.A. models916? It dawned on me that I haven't seen him posting for a while, and I sent him a PM and got no response. Hoping he's OK.

Look at all of those Big W's!

Don, isn't that ridiculous? It really pays to shop around.

Still available at Amazon and a bunch of other places: Thexton

To add the extra ports needed for my aftermarket gauge sender and electric fan switch on my 348 I bought a cast iron water neck from Rock Auto, Dorman #902-2017 for about $8 and drilled and tapped it myself - the material is thick enough that you don't need a "boss". A little tight with a 3x2...

Good luck, Mike!
