Whatever happened to these?

I'm guessing it's Green! What do I win!?

Well it was a good weekend. Buckled down and got the rear end, leaf springs, valance, bumper, k-frame etc off the car and lowered it onto the jig!

Alright, the time has come so I'm putting this here to help keep me honest. I have no more excuses to not get the cuda on the jig. By Saturday evening I plan on having it mounted and put into place so I can start working on on it... Now, a thought I had as I was stripping the dash etc out the...

Well, aside from needing to paint a couple of small parts (cold got in the way), here is the jig in all it's glory. I was a little concerned with the overall rigidity but after having a floor jack under one corner and seeing the whole thing lift without any twisting, I'm not concerned. The bolts...

Alright, made one last change. This time to the feet. I realized how high the car was going to be when mounted and decided it was better to have it lower to the ground. I lopped off the feet I'd tacked on and went with this instead. Much simpler and a little over 4 inches lower overall.

Thanks! i think I've made my goals for having it adjustable and collapsible as well as being stout enough to trust putting my car on it. A standard box would have been WAY easier obviously but I hated the idea of building one, then having to scrap it, or having a huge box laying around until...

Got everything locked in finally. Juts need to spend some time chasing details and do a walk around in case I missed some welds. I know there are a few and the end caps need a final burn. I changed the main stand offs to something a little better than my original hack/smash effort. Got the...

I have no idea what a shekel is, but I'll take it as a compliment! LOL.. Thanks! EDIT: I get it! LOL.. thanks again!

Thanks! Getting closer but not winning any races. Every time I plan on getting to the point of putting the car on it, something comes up. Slow and steady wins the race sometimes.

Thanks! Been working on it. I don't claim to be "good" but I'm not the worst. Was chasing some problems with some really awful results until I realized no gas was coming out. Seems the torch end wasn't seated in the the holder properly. I suspect someone used it for a leash at some point and...

More progress on the "M1 tank jig" It's not obvious from the picture but the wheels are attached to "carriages" that can be removed when not in use. I need to make the standoffs that will slide into the 4 pedestals at the ends. The standoffs will be held in place with 4 3/8 bolts. You can see...

Thanks!

All things being equal, what's the difference in weight between a 70 Coupe and a 70 Vert. ??

No worries, the offer was greatly appreciated.

That are now, largely due to the internet.... Not back in the day.

honestly I don't know.

That's be awesome. It's a 70. Gonna be later tonight but I'm a long way from the work so feel free to take your time.

Oh ma damn.... That's purdy!
