So here is the frame being etch primed,epoxy primed and then painted and control arms getting cleaned up as well .

I added new control arm bushings and ball joint
I was initially going to use the rivet looking ball joint bolts ,but they looked weak so i went to Fastenal and found some grade 8 button head bolts and used a hex nut underneath .
Added some JB weld,some sanding and paint and they sort of pass OK for rivets to most ..
Control arms with ball joints and bushings added and ready to install...

Then came the restoration of as much of the front end steering components as possible
Luckily most of it was usable so it was cleaned, paint markings were noted and parts then restored as best as possible ...
Here is everything clean and inspected before rebuilding.

Looking great!!

Finishing the front end and brake components and rebuilt the calipers.
I have the correct 68' dual piston calipers but the 2 piece rotors were too thin for use ,and they are heavy compared to the single pistons, so those were used .

Then I rebuilt the 68' Manual steering box with new bushings,etc.

Tie rod adjusting sleeves and rear end frame bump stops cleaned up and refinished.

Cleaned up some low mileage rotors and drums from another car . The drums still have the adjusting knock out plugs and rotors have ink stamps.

Painting the 12 bolt assy . Cant find the assembly pics but it consists of the following..
68 12 bolt housing
Detroit True Trac Posi unit
4.10 Richmond gears
Strange Axles

Rear backing plates and rear brake assemblies rebuilt. Also detailed the rear brake hose bracket and the original hose retaining clip as the aftermarket clips are incorrect.
