Wet 400 then base tomorrow. I can see the light.

PUI has a lot of interior parts. They are not quite the same quality but typically you don’t have to wait 8 months to get it.

More plugging away on the tailgate. 2k shot and blocked with 220. Tomorrow two coats of epoxy and wet sand with 400 and it’s ready.

:poke:

Sorry. Blocked out a couple layers of SPI black epoxy, shot 4 heavy coats, blocked it again lightly and used glaze to fill some issues then shot 2 coats of grey epoxy. Now if I hit black when sanding it is time to STOP.

TMI! :rofl:

Spring is here. About 80F

It’s never over till it’s over. Blocked out the epoxy primer that I put down yesterday found a few low spots and a few edges that I did not like. Little bit of glaze little more blocking with 80 grit and a quick sand with 180 grit and it’s flat. Sprayed on a couple light coats of gray epoxy...

Thanks Steve. Sorry for calling you Troy. Bill and I were talking about a Troy and it just kept coming out!

Measure your fuel pressure at the carb input and see what you have. An electric could easily put out enough to give you this problem.

My experience new fuel pumps will put out 8-12 PSI and rumors are Hollys are sensitive to fuel pressure. I used Daytonas on my dual carb setup which are Holly knockoffs from Argentina. They would occasionally flood over at idle. I found an original rebuildable Carter pump, bought a rebuild kit...

1966 Factory V8 Valiant Signet Restoration For My Other Daughter

Nice Ulf!

Great meeting you too Randy, and your posse. Its 1:20AM and we are almost home.

Thank you.

Great weekend with Bill Allphin. Photobombed Jay Leno, cruised the coast in a classic convertible, met Jay Leno’s car painter who was impressed with my work, and Cheryl’s car took first place in the class. What shall we do next year?

Spring Fling is over. Met a few FABO members this weekend and the Dart was well received. Got a couple pats on the back. First place in the Restified class (3-7 changes) and Jay Leno’s car painter gave me a nice complements on my bodywork and paint finishing. His car was stunning. Finally...

Where is everyone!

Locked and ready to load. Heading out tomorrow

If anyone will be at Spring Fling I have this grill I took out of the daughters Duster (put a new OER one in). I restored it 5 years ago or so but it does have a spot we sanded out to fit it over the 73 and up ac dryer (made custom lines before the new OER and put it back to pre 73 AC. Has...

Hi Ron! Jonny filled you in. How is the Satellite coming? Have not had and notifications of any posts in a while.

A little jewelery. Capital Metal in Tucson does it again. Wow. That bumper was mangled when they started. Only snag is waiting for the glass. Should be in a couple weeks.

Crap can someone move this over to the plain old parts thread.... I am not seeing how to delete this.....

Is anybody going to Spring Fling in Van Nuys and need something that I may have? I have a complete basically new 9 inch front drum brake set up spindles and all, that I took off the dart when I went to disk brakes. I have a set of 63 rear leaf springs. They are a little soft, but there’s nothing...

Just keep in mind it is only 225 cubes so it will never be a power house without forced induction. Also the head sucks on the slant so don’t go crazy with a cam, it will be gasping for air without lots of head magic. I would look at Oregon Cams 2106 or 819 grinds with the latter being a bit...

Also it is heading to Van Nuys next weekend for Spring Fling.

Thanks. It’s been on their YouTube channel for several weeks now. They did an individual car one and then a few weeks ago they put them in a single show. I like that format better. I wasn’t sure if was still on MotorTrend.

It’s all about impeller design and I’m not seeing a photo of it.

Where do you want the power and what cam are you using? High compression and wild cam will benefit WAY more with headers than a 9:1 with a cam slightly larger than factory.
