Just a question about your DOM of 1/70. I have #673 which is 70 units behind yours, but mine's Birth Date/Production Completion Date was 04/23/1970.

Looks great. You mentioned you were going to have the wheels powder coated. Did you go that route or have them painted the regular way?

Wheels are powder coated. Got the trans in...had some issues. Somehow the threaded interior gears inside of the flanges were reversed. It locked the drive gears....almost like we had a LSD, which we don't.
Had to tear it down, diagnose and reassemble.....fortunately we didn't put any oil in as yet. Saved the gaskets.... |
