Looks like it will be a bit of fun when its finished ! Nice looking bodyshell there too by the look of it . Who did your steering column ?

Blacky,
The steering column is from a HT holden. With the mods that im doing it has to be collapsable. I just cut the end off machined it to suit the torana universal and put in a bronze bush. Heres some more photos.
Still need a bracket made to hold the bottom in place
Still needs a small circlip to stop the shaft from pulling upwards.
I will get some more pics as these are early ones.
Regards EK 283!

Sorry guys I know this is not a EK but im just learning how to post photos.
Any way this is how I relieve stress when Im not working on my EK!
Its a 1965 Studebaker Cruiser appendix J racecar. It has a 300 rwhp 283 small block chev and yes it is standard for this model car cause Studebaker ran out of engines when they closed down.Took 2 years to build but well worth the effort. Its the best fun you can have whilst sitting down.
Im actually resting it as I build the EK, cant have everything damn it!

Hi there fellow fans,
Easter was a good time to get some work done on the EK. I have been busy building the engine for the car out of bits ive had for years. I put a 307 crank into a new 350 block and ended up with 327 cubic inch. Thats the good part about these engines you can interchange a lot to get the desired size. Any way after 4 days I reappeared out of my cave with another hurdle done.Enjoy
Not blood just engine assembly lube
