Comment by don bramblett on Saturday didn't you say below you got a steering column from a 95 Camaro?
Comment by Vall Miller on Saturday ??? Not sure what you mean Don? How does the F body thing relate to my Falcon?
Comment by don bramblett on Saturday val; I play with f bodies primarily and I need to pass this info along, every f body ive ever had, I had to pull the steering column all the way down and tighten up the shaft as well as put all new components in, the problem stems from how everyone gets out of these things, using the steering wheel to pull themselves out of the car......theres a side window quirk as well but you don't need that one as you don't have the f body........charley; that chevy is looking great man, we are planning a trip to gallatin in a couple months, I hope to see it in person while im there........

Comment by Vall Miller on May 17, 2013 at 9:39pm The '57 looks great! Sure seems like everybody must either be working on their projects, or nothing going on! It's been slow on "under construction" for a long time!
Guess I've forgotten to post updates also, as I've been very busy on the Falcon gasser project. I have finished all the drivetrain and suspension, and just started breaking it down to begin paint work on the drivetrain, and engine work.
Just finished assembling the 464 BBC today:
And the rollbar and seats are mocked up:
Front suspension all finisheed and painted:
And a couple views when I drug it outside the other day to flush out the work area!
Comment by Charlie57 on May 17, 2013 at 6:35pm Where has everyone been? No post for over a month! Well I am getting back into my project. I took my 57 Chevy to a painter 5 months ago and he pretty much did nothing to it so I brought it home. He said he just needed a few more weeks! HA! So the 57 is home, my buddy came over and in two days this car had more work done then the painter did in 5 months. All the panels are lined up and now we are going to primer it one more time for a final block sanding then it should be ready for the booth. Can't wait!
Comment by Vall Miller on March 23, 2013 at 11:24am Better skip Power Block and do your own version of Power Block! LOL
Just got back from a little swap meet and picked up a pair of welded Flowmaster mufflers for $30. Got my new steering column from pick n pull yesterday from a '95 Camaro with tilt. Also chopped a pair of flares off the frotn wheelwells of a old Mercedes to use when I radius the rear wheelwells to fit the Hurst 10" pie crust slicks!
