I was thinking about POR15 or something... It has surface rust on the inside of the passenger door and the rest is fine...

Cool, i had gotten some from eastwood(por15) because there chassis crap black is already rusting! they tried to tell me poor prep, long story short i got 100 bucks credit out of them and got that. Would you think that maybe they have problems or they just like giving out money?

Interesting... you should post a review on the forum and show pics...

The stuff that I used on my frame will never come off, unless battery acid gets on it (already happened!)

sourkraut · 01-29-2012, 09:19 PM

Oh well, it is not the first bad decision i have made in my life. However i can fix this one!

sourkraut · 02-04-2012, 08:43 PM

Got the other door, fender and hood on and some what aligned. Seeing what all needs work to get good lines and gaps. The doors will need more work, still have to weld in the right side hoop. hoping to keep at it here and maybe get her on the road for this summer now that things have slowed down some.

k_n_browning · 03-21-2012, 10:27 PM

You have better pics of the shifter?I am looking at putting that transmission in my 68.

sourkraut · 03-22-2012, 08:25 AM

Very easy swap, had to have a new driveehaft made, used a 1971 nova flywheel and a later year master cylinder so I could use the original pedal cluster. If you need any part numbers let me know., got the knob from eBay and bent up the shorter from 5/8 round stock so it was were I wanted it. I took the threaded bung out of the oe shifted and welded to my new upright. Need any help let me know.

Can not for some reason add a pic from my phone will add some for you when I get home tonight.

Thank you guys. Trying to keep it a hobby rather than a chore.

Tinkermc · 03-23-2012, 11:25 PM

well you made it a long night. I found page 1 and now here I am.You do very nice work and I like the no bondo approach, it is worth the extra work in the end. When you bought the metal around the windshield you mentioned the warehouse. can you give me a link or number anything would help. TIA !!! Keep up the good work
