the body is ready for final paint striping and then it will be blasted with reclaimed glass and then with crushed walnuts. The walnuts will remove the paint in the tight spots without damaging the body. While our body man works on the body, the mechanical systems will be rebuilt.

Thank you John
I will keep posting the photos as the work progresses

 

Rocco considering the car's pedigree, wouldn't it be wiser to keep it stock?

 

Your correct Bernie
but these brakes can come off any time and there is no mods to be made to the car.
they are three times the braking force of the originals and weigh less than the stock units.
They will not fit under the 14 inch wheels

 

Do they work off the std mastercylinder ? Or are you going to fit a dual with brake bias adjustment ? If so what about the booster ?
Brake kit looks superb
Lots of us are enjoying this , thanks Rock

 

Great thread. Its always a treat to see the progress of these cars comming back to life, cant wait to see the reassembly pics.

 

Dave, the brakes have been tested with the stock master and booster set up for steet/ track use, and we also set them up with duals masters and no booster with a manual bake balance bar for a full track. The stock booster system weighs more but cost less to set up.
red knob on the dash is for the brake balance

Its like climbing a mountain, when you reach the top and start to desend. We are still climbing, when the car is painted and all the systems are rebuilt then we start to reassemble then we are in the descend mode.

 

Any updates?

 

The updates are coming, we have five big projects on the go so they all seem to be moving along slowly.

 

Well?

 

all is well, and the updates will be posted in the near future
