A Few More Photos (1500 Project – 22)

I just realized that I did not post these images:

Here is a shot of Guy painting the underside of the car with DP90 (the seams were later seam sealed, and then it will get a bed-liner undercoat):

A few other misc shots – “The Saddle”

1968 and later roadsters frames were improved with additional reinforcement which we call “the saddles”. I had saved some of these from a frame that we had cut up and we decided to add them to this car’s frame– mostly to mess with the experts…  (Not that anyone will actually notice!)

Ok, in this shot the frame is mounted upside down, the front is to your left. This is where the frame transitions from the front suspension to the flat section on the underside of the car:

Test fitting the saddles. This actually worked out well, as there was an ugly dent in the frame that was soon to be covered up by the saddle:

And a shot of this section on the freshly powder coated frame:

More details that no one will ever see…

Sway Bar Mount

The passenger side sway bar mount was wasted:

A donor was saved from frame that we cut up:

After careful measuring and aligning, it was tacked and welded into position:

And finished:

One very small step closer…
