Adkmach1's restoration progress

[adkmach1]

Just picking up some new parts for the car over the winter, new valve covers, air cleaner, distributor, coil, etc. Can't wait to spring to come to get the car out of the garage and on the road.

I don't know what's more fun, ordering the parts or comming home to see them on the door step. All I do know is that it sucks waiting for UPS. lol

Update, Friday I went to my friends house and we got the door glass in and fitting right and the trunk rubber on. We also put the Mach 1 stripes on most of the car. Pics are on the way. Now for the bad news, I got car on the road, now it needs a new gas tank and I have an oil leak somewhere on the engine. My 10 day stricker is running out. ya.

Bruce,
Did you go with the original glue in glass or did you upgrade like I am going to do & use the 1970 bolt in glass?. Any way it looks good.

Bruce,
Do you have any new pics? What size wheels & tires are you running?.

 

[adkmach1]

Mike, I used the glue to put in the glass in. No new pics until spring, I did get the stripes on this year. I have 215 70 14s in the front, the rear has 275 60 15s, I have a shackle kit and air shocks on the back. It rides a little rough like the old days.

Bruce, Thanks for the info. I was looking through your progress pics in your photo albom & I love the 3rd pic the shot of the rear of the car outside in your driveway. That shot reminds me of when I had a 68 j-code GT Coupe that I had very wide rear tires & air shocks. That shot looks sooooo cool.
