Only a couple of pics this visit. We knocked out a few small items and a couple of large ones. Dad decided to upgrade to the next size torsion bars, so I had fun knocking the old ones out and bangin in the new ones. We finished the brakes, getting the new booster and master cylinder...

So, some more parts came in that allowed us to move along on a few things. One thing that we are learning is that sometimes you need a simple part in order to complete other items. Case in point, were waiting for the center dash speaker to come in, so I could replace the radio, then the heater...

Just a quick update. I was up at dads for a short couple of days this past weekend. I think we spent more time BS'ing and drinking beer than actually working on the car, which can be fun in itself. New Springs. It took forever to get the nuts off of the ubolts, my hands are still sore...

Hard core engine porn right there. What a beauty!!

Only if you come by and pick me up on the way there in your bird. :party:

We have a fiberglass 6-pack hood.

Is there any value on used 69 RR drum front and rear brakes with master cylinder? They are out of an 383 4-speed car. I am upgrading all around to disk. thanks

Its been a little while since I visited my dad. I made it up to WA last weekend and we did some more work. More parts came in and I spend some time getting everything organized. Rear Drum New rear disks Out with the old and in with the new. Roached. I need a new one for...

Hey everyone, Dad got the engine packed up and took it to the engine builder. I started to change out the brakes. Still plugging away, we hope to get the motor back soon. Motor and goodies packed up heading to the builder. Before After It's nice to start rebuilding...

A coworker and a good friend sent me these pics of a 68 out of Hampton Beach NH that he saw today. I have note gotten the full story on it, but he sent them to me since he knows I am working on my Bird. As you notice he was able to snap a picture of the interior and engine...

A 6 pack of Olympia Beer, which he still drinks today. Did they have wine coolers back in the 70's. :cheers:

More updates coming soon. This is a picture of my Mom, Dad, and the car about 1970. A year before I was born.

I wonder how many cars were ordered with that color during that short run?

HA, you can call me "Will work for Beer."

Hey Bob, if you ever need a second pair of hands call me.

Sorry I missed ya Bob. I was there Sat for a few hours but had accidentally left my phone with your number back at the hotel. :-( I hung around your Bird for a bit hoping to catch ya. Next time I'll just take 5 minutes and drive to your house to visit ya. LOL!!

The wife and I plan to be there on Sat. We will look for ya and say hi!!

Looks like it hit nose first right off a cliff.

Hey Bob, where do you go to shoot?

. Find out where in Jersey and google local shippers. The shipper will swing by and pick them up, take them back to their office, box them up and ship them. For a fee I'm sure. I bought some bar stools from a guy in Austin a couple years ago that wanted pick up only. I found a shipper...
