    Sherman,

    Thanks so very much.  Photos will be appreciated - especially important are images of the ends.

    Les,

    Thanks!  ---52, huh?  Wish I had seen it at the time.  Now I have a project:  find --52.  

    I appreciate your taking time to send me the info and note.

    Exactly!  Good question.

    Yellow = L shaft.  I wrote a big note on the garage wall:  "The double bumps on both shafts are the ends toward the wheels."

    Thanks for the compliments.

    You going to do yours?

    Jake,

     

    My wife and I are going to Asheville on the Sunday, so I will not be joining the caravan this year.  If I breakdown I will be calling you and expecting you to come to my rescue!  Sound like a plan?  See you there.

     

    Me missed you at '02 Fest.  You could have gotten caught up in the AR/MO floods like we did.

     

    Good luck driving to Asheville.

    Is Saturday Fuel cranking up on these cold Saturdays?  If so I'll bring you a special present.

    Mike,

     

    Please put my name on one of your PostIt notes as an '02'er who wants to join your caravan to Mid-America next year.  I will do the same.

    For the life of me I cannot remember the source of my new 3-coil/resistor for the heater motor.  I will go my garage today and look for the shipping box and see if the box label might be useful.  Larry

    Paul,

     

    Thanks for the note re: your, er..., rather your car's, underside.  Nicely done and looks nice.  My '74 tii needs a good belly cleaning, degreasing, and general tidying-up.  Will you be so kind as to provided a little of your experience? 

     

    You stated, "...I cleaned the trunk and underside down to metal and completed a POR15 process."  

     

    1. How did you go about cleaning your belly and POR15'ing?  Take it to the pressure car wash?  Up on stands and crawling under?  Hand washing? etc.?

     

    2.  How did you manually clean the belly?  Chems?  Soap?  Pressure?  Scraping?

     

    3.  How did you go about applying anti-rust?  Applied over all components, including frame, etc.?

     

    Photos of my car and a few representations of its underside are attached.

     

    Thanks for any help, wise counsel, and sage advice.

      IMG_2927.jpg "Hope that helps."...it certainly does, Paul.   THANK YOU for giving me lots of good recommendations to consider and to keep me busy.  I think it does our cars a great injustice to ignore the belly.  I guess it is OK to do so; however, what really gets me is to see a nice car with a dirty engine bay.  AAAGGGHHH!  I don'r really mind if it is cluttered or old or needs mechanical/electrical attention or whatever, but for Heaven's sake, clean the damn engine and bay!  

       

      I have used Rust Mort as a rust stopper and preventative.  Works easily and well.  However, I will try the three-step POR-15 process b/c so many of our 02'ers have done so.

       

      Good luck with your car.

      I totally agree.  Can't resisting adding pretty pictures.  Cheers.

      Holy Crap!  Dat bay be stylin' and reeeeeal clean!

    I am interested in your car as a project.  A couple of questions if you don't mind, please.

    1.  Does it need some work to wake it up and get going?.

    2.  Will it start, run, and perhaps make it to Cincinnati?  

    3.  Any rust issues:  trunk, rocker panels, jack points, and door bottoms?  The wheel wells and engine bay look pretty good.  

     

    Thanks for posting and for taking time to answer.

     

    Regards,

    Yes, indeed, can you share some photos of your new LED lights installed and working?  We will really appreciate such posts.  Or feel free to send them to me personally.  Also, do you have any idea of the difference (other than cost) between the four type of 7" lights offered by VintageCarsLED?

     

    Thanks,

    Roundie,

     

    I, too, love original/stock '02 steel wheels and always desired same in 14x6 size.  However, I never thought such combo would ever exist.  Your project looks sweet, indeed.  Please update me/us re: how your alterations were done and how the project works out. 

     

    I like my Panasports but would drop them immediately for your new invention...

     

    Regards,

      Test fitted the mock up over Girling calipers with slotted rotors. I am restomodding my '72 and wanted to make sure of fitment. next step is to have the wheel completed and then I'm going to have it powder coated. The completed version should be finished by month end. This may not be an economical everyday wheel though. The fabrication is $200 and powder coating probably $60-$80 each. If I'm not mistaken Panasports can be had for that.

      Indeed, quite a project.  However, way cool.  Total's gonna be an expensive proposition and one I feel just might be well worth the time, effort, and $.  Clarification:  Fab is $200/rim?

       

      My 14" Panasports were $800, with tires.  Gonna live with them a while...
