Even though I bought new the headers did not have directions. Found some online. I need to cut a hole in RH rear apron for that rearmost tube. I previously owned the smaller diameter Hooker headers and I do not recall carving the apron to get them to fit. I guess tomorrow will be carving...

I can't even get the rearmost passenger side close to bolting to the head even though no other tubes are in place yet. Next step will be to lift the engine. Were you able to snake in the tubes after the engine was bolted in place?

I have done this before but it was nearly 40 yrs ago. These are 3 piece headers each side, rear two exhaust ports on each side are separate tubes that slip fit into the header collector area that also has the front two tubes/. I started on the passenger side, rear two tubes. I cannot get the...

Impressive. I need inspiration (and perhaps a couples counselor) for what I am considering undertaking. I think I will be buying mostly already formed pieces for mine but I am certain I will need to do some metal forming. Do you have a heet metal brake to help form parts?

That is a steal

This is with respect to the car I have been posting about whether to save or sell. It is a bright red ramair vert with a white top per the Marti. Would the hood center have been black or argent? Not sure a black hood would look right with a white vert top? I have been rummaging thru the forums...

No wife but longtime fiancee ,been together 13 yrs, could not look at the carcass without anxiety rising, lol. About 5 yrs min from her moving in so not an issue too much. I think part of her prefers me to have something to occupy my time. I want to paint 2 of my cars and my other vert is on the...

Very impressive

Inspirational regardless. I would do it all myself except set the rear gear and I might even try that. I have the time easily. This car will only be at most a 30k car, more realistically 25k but I would have saved it. I would rather put the time and energy into a 429 but I can;t find one...

Unfortunately the PO did. I would be willing to figure out what to do on that. I have 2 other cars with staggered shocks so I could maybe handform a replacement?

I have this item posted as a carcass in the for sale area however I am still contemplating saving it. it is a 351-4V, ramair vert, 3.25 t-loc, Magnum 500, comp susp, gauges, etc BUT needs almost every sheet metal part replaced. Fenders and doors are good enough. I have a ramair hood, the seats...

Did you replace that much on ur car? I am curious what is possible. Is your car something of sentimental value or exceedingly desirable or more of a challenge that you can fix it? Do you have training to weld and place body panels? I am an engineer so I think I could jig it up and get it...

Only part I cut out was for space saver tire. Cut a couple bolt heads and the hard brake lines at the discs.

I am not the one that cut out the floor pan but the reinforcement is in pic. It is damaged. Looks like crossplate bolt broke off as well

I really wish I was up to saving it. Car was pretty stripped when I got it.

Rusted very badly. Nearly every piece of metal needed to be replaced. Maybe cowl could have been patched, windshield frame ok, rocker panels ok but one inner missing, rear seat back support good. Doors and fenders were usable but doors for sure had been replaced. Probably 5k in sheet metal and...

$200. Dash panel and one legible shock tower VIN with title. Carcass MUST be taken as part of the purchase. No wheels or tires. PO cut some stuff out. This is literally just the carcass. I can help load but do not have any special equipment to do so. Doors are NOT included with the sale...

Be sure to use the adhesion promoter for the interior rear quarter trim panels. It works great on parts like that and consoles and the like. I doubt it would hold up on a seat. Oven cleaner worked great as a cleaner on my panels. Just have a hose at hand and do not let it sit too long. Get some...
