Good progress here Brian. Drive it and enjoy it.

Life just gets in the way sometimes. Same thing happening to me over here on the west coast. The trick is to prioritize and then "whack a mole" one task at a time each day.

Bill, sorry to hear...

One of these years, I'm going to fly out to Pigeon Forge for this show and meet you guys. can't make it happen this year though. :(

Welcome to TriFiveChevys. Let's see a pic or 2 of that truck!

My corvette (oops, i mean your wife's corvette :D) is coming along nicely.
Got to do it right on getting those gaps and trim to fit snug.

Great progress you've made here Timo! Wiring is a challenge no doubt, especially when you've got a more modern build in mind. Relays are good..I used a bunch of them in my Nomad when I wired it up...

Sometimes getting a 2nd opinion helps. In this case, it did.
Carry on!

That's looking great Richard. I can't wait to see it in final paint.

Nice find! Another one leaving CA for other destinations. Keep that off the salty roads please. That one is in great condition. Enjoy it and drive it!

That looks like a winner to me. Bit dont spend too much time looking in the rearview mirror. Drop that hood and drive it! :p

Encouraging to hear you got it out for a long drive. These are typical post-wiring troubleshooting issues Tabasco. Stay with it. Troubleshoot one circuit at a time and reduce the urge to get...

Fantasic work there. And kudos to you for taking lots of progress pics and posting here. This will be so rewarding, once you're beyond all this slogging with rusty sheet metal. Keep at it. It's...

Stay with it Timo. You are closer to driving it than you may be thinking...:cool:

keyless ignition?
nitrous switch?
USB plug?
giant check engine light that glows red. :D

That is far more simple to replace than the whole engine from say a bearing going bad. Get some video of you guys driving it and post that soon.

I spy with my eye....a rack and pinion steering on the front of that old car... :p What'd that come out of?

Great find 57kurt. I'm just down the road from you in Santa Clarita. If it's running good, and you get get an early start, come to the old Kmart parking lot (corner of Soledad Cyn Rd and Bouquet Cyn...

Welcome 210Chevy. Nice 57 ya got there. I'm a bit partial to 57's myself. :cool:

As to your question about replacing the knurled pin with a bolt, I suppose that would work if you make sure the bolt doesnt protrude any deeper inside than the pin would.

Here's a good technical...

Here's what Laszlo says in an earlier post:

When I drilled mine, I don't remember pulling them apart and cleaning out the shavings. I just remember using grease to catch as many as possible.

Outstanding progress in 2021 Timo! You get my vote for member of the year on website, based on your overall project progress.
Kudos to you!
Onward to 2022. You'll be driving that tri5 soon.
