back again, on moparts slowest build. got some 15x6 and 15x8 police wheels, and cop caps. (thinking of doing some cooper cobras this time, instead of t/a radials) doing the manual rack, and entire front end rebuild this weekend. all new urethane bushings, ball joints, tie rod ends, shocks, etc. did brakes and bearings, seals and races this past weekend. got a new radiator, and waiting for another carb, then it's time for the engine swap. slowly, but slowly......

thanks big red monster!! camera is dying, even after i washed it and dried it in the microwave, still is crapping out. hitting it with a ball peen hammer, produced no better results. guess i need a new one. (little crappy digital camera, to carry around in pocket) so forgive the [Edited by Moparts - Family Friendly Site - Keep it clean] pics... so, the manual rack is in, p/s pump removed. tried for half a year to find a pulley for the manual steering waterpump. no dice. tried to find an idler, that would fit. nada. my buddy roy decided he could use the old airpump bracket, and make me an idler. pulling an adjustable pulley and block from his parts bin, we flipped the airpump bracket and fabbed the mount for the pulley. the pulley needed a bushing, to fit in the adjustable block, so he machined one for me. marked the location, and drilled two holes to mount the airpump bracket to the block. fabbed some spacers, and put it all together, with some chassis black paint. now, i have a fully adjustable idler pulley for the waterpump. (will cut the excess mounting bracket off, when the motor is pulled for the swap.)

they are called dog dish for a reason. but the non-vented ones hold more water. I was known to drop small rocks, marbles, BBs and the like in all the local copcars that had them back in the day. till I got busterd fer it, then 2 weekends of washing cruzers or tell my folks. you know back in the good old days with Malloy & Reed or Andy & Fife disclaimer...if you find any rocks, marbles, BBs in those caps OR they go missing...I didn't do it! I run caps & lugs with 85 poverty rims that came on my stepside.
