The 2 inch Roloc disc is great on your 90 deg die grinder for small areas but we need to think bigger.3M make a 4in & 5in one for your grinder. Norton make a 7 inch one as well. Get the purple one...
56 Safari your making good progress. I use a Clean and Strip Disc for removing body filler, not sure if you guys call it that in the U.S. It looks like a disc made of dried seaweed and attaches to...
Mech393 Thanks for that explanation.
That would be the "Red Headed step child" mech393.
I'm originally from New Zealand now living in Australia and it would be fair to say that of all the tri fives in N.Z. (and there is plenty) 90%...
Welcome to the site Island56. I'm feeling your pain re: shipping. $3000 to ship down to Australia.
I don't know this test Mech393, could you elaborate on this please.
Regards Andrew.
A fresh rebuilt 700 in standard form will handle that. Get a Corvette 2nd gear servo installed to sharpen up the shift as they are abit lazy into second. Good luck.

I agree with CNUT 700r4 is a good trans. If you purchase one get the factory brackets to hold the TV cable in the correct position to the carby as it is crucial that it is set properly or trans...
Hutchinc, What Bitchin'57 is describing is what's called "wet on wet" application and is widely used mostly on insurance work to cut down on costs. The problem with using that technique over blasted...
Disregard this post
Not sure which regulator you are purchasing but some AC Delco regs are actually Wix regs in AC boxes at twice the price. Some people have had problems with Wix maintaining correct pressure.

welcome to the site Vetmann. Look forward to following your build.

I'm working on polishing my fuel tank and fuel lines, so they can be installed permanently too. I plan to install the brake lines, exhaust, and anything else I can install. Still trying to figure out...
Rick, Is using taller ball joints the same as lowering the upper 'A' Arm pivot point and if so, Isn't that what Shelby did to the early Mustangs to make them handle better.?
Regards Andrew.
Thanks Rocky. I've bookmarked it.
welcome to the site Ferari. That prancing horse banner in front of the 57 will have to be moved one bay to the left and replaced with something more suitable...say a Bowtie one :) .I like your dive...
[QUOTE=hutchenc;26935]Andrew...I'm not getting soft with the GTO. I like how it handles and the fact that it's pretty damn fast while being really pleasant to drive. I had her up to 146 MPH the...
It's imported into Australia as shampoo.
Hutchenc, Thanks for the reply and specs on your car.I know you said you were done throwing money at it but........
I lifted this article from an old super chevy magazine feature.It's from Doug...
Rocky, thanks for the explanation on Naval Jelly,I've heard you guys talk about it but never knew what it was. I'm now informed.
Rick, Evaporust has no acids,alkalies,bases or solvents,it wont...
I agree with you on the cure all products Robert,but i have used evoporust many times,once panel is clean of rust, wash down with water to remove residue, dry off panel.I then give it a quick wip...
Hello Hutchenc, Ive just put a Morrison rear end in my 56 chassis (sorry I havent posted the pix yet but they're in my album) and have tubular A arms top and bottom,1 1/4 tubular sway bar,CPP drop...
Just had a thought,if you have a product over there called EVAPORUST you could use that.but it only works while it is wet( the panel )as soon as it dries the process stops. It is water soluble and...
Rocky, I would use a spot blaster if you have one,a pot blaster would be better as you have a big area to do and you want to get the metal clean and into epoxy primer as quickly as possible. I'm not...
