Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger

Passenger side spring mount has also taken a hit so that will be attended to in due course.

Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger

It’s a nice rust free car but it has been in the wars as it turns out. Rear drivers chassis rail had taken a hit and was properly mangled. Section cut out reworked and welded back in, still looks a bit Frankenstein until I properly finish it.

Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger

Prop loop made and fitted, bolts are tacked in from the top for easy removal. I consider this an essential if you are going down the track, certainly saved some damage when my yoke let go.

Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger

First job as usual is interior and heater out, hopefully that’s as much stripping down as is needed.

Re: Strut Rod Bush?

I’ve never had any luck with poly strut rod bushes fitting properly so I use rubber.

Re: Strut Rod Bush?

It’s usually just a 2 piece bush with no spacer. No lock nut either.

Re: Blue's Barracuda

Thanks Pete, still need to “restore” the headrest and dye it blue to match the rest. I’ll cut my other headrest down to swap in for road use.

Wasn’t happy with the cage so Andy kindly altered it to how I originally envisaged it.

Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger

It’s not that hard to get a decent finish that’s good enough under hood, painting bodywork proper takes a lot more practice!
