QUOTE(racer914 @ Nov 13 2024, 09:37 AM)  It was an exciting day for me as I finally got to bring my car home from the body shop where it has been for too long. I'm pleased with the results and anxious to get started on the reassembly. Oh my goodness, what a great color! I looked to see if the trees were also blown out bright green. No they are not, that green is that bright. That is wonderful (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Looks great so far Best Bob B (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) |

Looks like I can trust the rebuilt alternator for longer drives. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Not a bad idea to keep a set of jumpers in the trunk. Is she reading 13 - 15v when running? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I have a set of jumper cables coiled inside the spare. And yes, about 13.4 - 13.5 at the battery when running with the solid state regulator. Slightly higher with the old school voltage regulator, but that one gets pretty warm. |

Back to the front bumper. Thank God the car came with painted bumpers, they’ll stay that way. Filler is my friend.

Motor is mounted!
Happy with the stance, exhaust and muffler will add a few more pounds once installed. Be back at it in a couple of weeks...   |

Attempt number two: I have a piece of 1.5" dia, 1/4" wall, 1" ID DOM tubing coming to weld to the top of the tool so it will slip on at the top of the press.
