After messing with the rear we started putting together the front, that geared Hub was okay. Thanks god, Roy did that one for me about 3 months ago

I'm starting to think there is elves in the shop

Stuff like this makes me think Roy is truly a machine, possibly sleeps with a torque wrench under his pillow.

Now here's a question.

As stated before I say I was the comic relief he asked me to put on the front bush gard....

He comes around to the front and starts laughing and then walks away. my picture doesn't do this justice but here's a couple pics if you can notice it?? Or what I had to change?? Hehe

Overall the first part was very heavy work and dirty, but honestly with Roy there by my side like I said before he made the impossible seem possible.

Extremely happy with the progress and how everything is working

Also, today was a semi easy day which was nice for a change.

Basically put in the rear drive shaft and the two CV shafts.

Roy had a rim in stock to replace mine that was bent.

Also next time I go there we will be putting in a brand new master cylinder and running complete new brake lines. Then properly attached the hood and all the accessories to hold the hood on

There's actually a list but I can't think of it off the top of my head.

Hmmm, don't quote me on this, as lol my guessing is sad at best, hehe

But , if I were to, I'd say abooooout 2 weeks +, we are waiting for a set of tires, and some body panels,. And a fuel tank selector valve, lol they not an off a self item, figured it would be as its from a Ford,..well to find one not at a dealer price, hehe

Last year they're was a few of valves at a local wrecker yard.none now.



Don't worry Rockcrusher I'm sure I'll be passing ya In Waterdown in no time, ;) hehe
