You should watch Nick's Garage on youtube

Nice Torino by the way

Normally you have the case vertically with access to drop the drums and pump in...

I do not tend to watch car programs - I wonder why....

apologies for putting up non mopar but just thought it might of been of interest,
how u doing Del, knowing you I bet your stir crazy with things you want to get out and do.
garage looks tidy as nothing going on

as I closed it at the start of April

reopening next week

hence doing all my own motors with to many projects on the go

Pete, you r right about box upright for assembly otherwise its a pain to put drums and gears in without them plopping about, stand is good for initial strip down when all the crap comes out of them and drips on the floor and bench

John, you should know but now it’s not just Mopar we are interested in.

Good work! Nice Torino too, any more pics and details of it?

70 Torino Sportsroof, 302 auto, p/st, column shift, bench seat, got it out of Wisconson, was an Oklahoma car garaged all its life apparently, 0 rust, quite unreal how original this car is. I cleaned up the body paint, has had doors painted typical American 80's job, not the perfect match, but otherwise original paint, just put a new vinyl, old one was perished,and front seat cover, as drivers seat was split on the edge, new power disc brake conversion just fitted and gearbox overhauled new rad, and serviced
Just lowered it and put on wheels the 14" look to small in my opinion, has got tubed headers.
For someone to have it as a keeper it should have a proper resto paintjob, but as is, I luv it, the phrase "it has Great Patina" (meaning b---sh--t I cant be bothered or wont spend the money) sums up the body.
hope to get some use out of it when things get more normal
