A '69 Build... "Brought to you by Don Juan Productions" Full index added to page #1

Curious how you're going to isolate the aluminum fuel line so the vibrations don't chew through the sidewall

The holes that I drilled really left no room for slop around the fuel line. I had to really work it into those holes. 1" in, bend, 1" in, bend.... rinse repeat. It was a pain to get them in both upper and lower hole at the same time plus slip the tube over, but I eventually got it by slipping a round file in a hole a made in the rectangle area, through the cage tube and out the bottom side into the fuel line. I hope it works with out rattles. If not, I'll just step on the skinny panel till I can't hear it anymore.

I honestly am curious if high heat fireplace caulking around the intersections would hold. It might drip right out during welding? I think most of it is good for 2000 degrees, though??

I was actually wondering that. Let us know how that fireplace goo works Mikey

That's a real thing on unibody cars.

After fab and before paint prep, some builders will use a two-part rapidly expanding foam in rockers. It alledgedly adds torsional stiffness, probably reduces some in-cabin noise, and definitely keeps water out and internal rust to a minimum.

The NOS decal crows uses Great Stuff to a lesser effect.

So awesome to see you progressing again.

You're going to need to find a way over to Tacoma this summer. That way you can hop in Sean's rig and drive down. It sure was nice of you guys to volunteer to help on the rig, whether you knew that you did already is inconsequential to me. See ya soon.

Ps. If your head still hurts I'll massage it with some 60 grit and DA while you eat cookies. That still leaves one hand open so I can drink beer. Lol

 

[blazinzuk]

I can get to Tacoma easy man. Lemme know I'll make it happen. Even if I have to hitchhike. My good looks always garuntee a ride.

 

[frankin5]

Sure glad you clarified what that last hand was doing.

I can hold a beer and still be able to point with the same hand as @Z71paramedic needs direction. I'm a good designator .

There is no scenery in Oroville. Unless he has stash of priceless OEM parts for a first Gen,

Pfff....I'm here. The most beautiful thing that your eyes will ever gaze upon.

See avatar for reference.

 

[Bent77]

Oh good grief

 

[tRustyK5]

Well, your cage work is pretty at least...that's about all the good scenery Oroville needs.

 

[frankin5]

I rest my case. Will have to make it over the hill one day to see all the speed holes that are gathering rust.
