We will need a heat shield for the master cylinder.

Thank you for your post and kind words.
I really enjoy seeing what everyone is doing here. I am getting excited to see my old car coming together after so many years, and so I am taking a lot of pictures.
I am glad that you like them.

Mark as I have said before "This Is One First Class Ride" you are building.
You are doing an Amazing Job on the car and it is Showing Bigtime!!!
I Wish my 36 ply coupe project was at the same stage as your car.
I guess I need to start on it. First things first though, the A12 RR is underway now so the coupe will have to wait a couple more years.

AWESOME JOB MARK. Thanks for the photos and Inspiration!!!
David

Hey David,
I am proud that you, and others here like what I am trying to do. This positive response, is really motivating me to try, and finish the Allstate now. BTW, around The Shop the car is known as "Henry".

I would love to see some pictures of your A 12 RR sometime. Those A 12s are among my favorite Mopars.
I did the opposite of you, and did my old car first! LOL My RR is next.
Thank you David, I feel motivated!

Thanks Don,
I probably won't be leaving the car anywhere !!
I worry about things too much.
I do plan on doing a video of the start up, which should come very soon. I have been checking for gauge function, fuel pressure, cooling fans, leaks, and anything else I can think of to be ready. Already did a pre-lube on the stand, and will do another just prior to fire up.
I am using a single four intake to start with and will switch to an old Rat Roaster cross ram when I get the bugs out of the car. The fuel lines and linkage are a direct swap from one intake to the other, so it is fairly simple to do.
Thank you for your support.

That's one really cool build. Love the detail in the interior panelling, must have taken some time.

way cool





Thanks Mudgy,
The guy I had make those panels for the car, was a union sheet metal worker that was laid off at the time. We struck a deal that we both were happy with. He has many years experience and has done a lot of race cars. Great with a tig welder too.

Do you have power brakes with that CNC brake assembly?

No,they are not power assisted. The car has Wilwood discs all around. I never thought of going to power though.

mark, i have some 16ga. stainless sheet you can have for your heat shield if you need it. it would polish up good i think. it's about 8x16" or so. i got a bunch of 'em from the junk one time. i've made a pile of brackets for foglites, switches, etc. let me know.

Wow Eric! What a kind and generous offer! That is probably just about perfect.

I am not sure what my friend Terry has "in stock", but I will definitely keep this in mind.

Thank you very much!!!

Saw your fire up video and have to ask what you have for mufflers and exhaust, header tube size?
