So I’m assuming that’s a 7” dual diaphragm booster?

Nice work dr. Do you clear coat after wire brush or not? All looks great, specially the reg cover. FB ute fixer upper, EK van on rotisserie Thanks! No clear coat just polished with autosol by hand. Although the hinges are literally just cleaned in the parts washer with steel wool. Think I have near...

Well being we are locked down again, I’ve been unable to get materials needed so … time to do some cleaning up of other bits and pieces. So got the other hinge cleaned up and on for now. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210822/be61eda2f4d39c12b12dfc86fe247091.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2...

Looking good Clint. Bit further ahead than I am. Things have slowed again due to yet another lockdown…. I did look at the holes in my bracket and it appears some one drilled extras to make it 85 x 85.

Nope, I haven’t drilled any holes. If I get a chance I’ll measure the bolt hole spacing over the weekend. I dare say someone’s added the extras for a booster….

Nice Blacky.

Today’s fun was to clean up 60years worth of crud of some bonnet hinges I plan to replace the worn ones in the car. So into my benchtop parts washer… just https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210725/a09116d686478a4af8e2ce18067f1b38.jpg Bit of steel wool and a few hours later… https://uploads.tapatalk-...

Looks great Tim. Black with Red Trim is hard to beat though!

Holy crap Scott! Really nice work.

Bit by bit Brett..... Sent from my SM-N976B using Tapatalk Yep, this latest snap lockdown caught me out in a good way, it’s given me some time to just fumble around in the shed. I was meant to be laying pavers but can’t go out to buy them…[emoji51] Downside is I really need to go get mig gas and or...

Good stuff Clay, certainly making the most of your iso…

As for the flooding think that’d be the next thing to tackle!

I’ll echo Blackys sentiments, get a heat gun and check temps. I will add I’d strongly recommend not running without a thermostat. It’s there to slow the flow of water through the radiator and maintain a more constant temp. Once your car heats up especially at freeway speeds the water is flowing much...

I’ve also seen no springs and a chain cut to the right length that gets hooked on.

So many options….
