would gutting a spark plug, threading the inside of the base for NPT, put a long nipple in it and a Milton type air hose fitting on the end work?

Thank you for sharing your adventure. Two personal questions and you don't have to answer if I'm being too nosey: 1) what does the car weigh? 2) how much did it cost or what would it cost to replace today? This seems like the easiest way to "build" a car for low $$$ and BIG fun! Thanks! Bob

mine is the cheap HF with 2 AA's. maybe I'll upgrade once I can get close enough to the lathe to rewire it. Ya know, new project, new tool.

Thanks for sharing findings on the brakes. I like the helpers work light, use mine more often than not now. Hmm, maybe I could use it to read at night?

is this the brackets used for an A-body power brake booster? A friend did that on his 66 A-body and had issues that I believe he decided was related to the pedal ratio.

That's Awesome!

practical and common sense, living within your means or the other example is "I owe, I owe, so off to work I go..."

WOW! That is outstanding! I hope the seats don't hide it and people see it when they look the car over. Neat!

I'll bet you are as excited as when you were going to look at your first car! Safe travels.

the minute details take time but make a difference in the end! Thanks for all the posts!

a tip from Hot Rod was to angle the turn downs inward; said to reduce the drone

frame connectors so you don't crack paint/wrinkle sheet metal with all the torque? looked in the FSM and one drawing in lubrication makes it look like it's a "full unibody" frame. Is that so?

yes, it gets that way as it ages...I've got one sitting out back with that color

how about AMC's metallic plum...

good attitude!

Alright! One step forward...and the p/s?

Fabulous to see it straight and rolling again. Maybe the price was a late Christmas gift? Glad you didn't give up on it.

busy day for sure

bend aluminum around the skeleton?

Thank-you for the explanation about your hip...gonna have to look that up and see what is all involved.

I enjoyed reading and catching up on your project. Lots of projects start here also, but to my wife's dismay, they don't get done. Hope the hip is up to snuff.

like the wagon!

I like the first one in the second row...
