Street Freak Rambler build

Thanks for the kind words. I’m happy you enjoy the thread.
My dad and I had some time today to work on the car. Didn’t get as much done as I wanted but still got something accomplished and it’s a good feeling.

My dad started the day sandblasting the front frame rails while I worked on setting up the pin on decklid. I’m not exactly happy with our sandblaster but it did ok. I might end up paying to have someone come to my house and do it. But for now it’ll work and I’m grateful my dad was there to do it. I got one set of pins for the decklid done and I’m still waiting on the second set from eBay.

I couldn’t bring myself to buy new Made in China sets so I found NOS Made in USA Mr Gasket sets and I’m going to use the. It’s stupid but I hate supporting the CCP.

After that my dad and I welded the hood to the fenders and began the long process of setting up the tilt front end. I need to get some small square tube to make a frame and then figure out my mounting and hinge.

Last picture is of a Mallory Coil and Super CD box I picked up on some crazy aluminum mount with an oil pressure and water temp sending unit crudely mounted to it. Pretty interesting.

After that we cleaned up and I walked my son down to the park to play with my wife and parents. All in all a very good day. Thanks for reading.
