MadMaxetcs '67 Driver Project

[MadMaxetc]

Didn't get any noticable progress done today. I tried to run the new brake lines but the Double Flare tool I have it a POS!!! I desided to swap the column shafts...that whent smooth. I also painted the column Gloss Black, it looks damn good.

I am going to go out and do some more welding on the 9". I need to get the spring pertches on so I can do the Axles and brakes.

I took some pictures...I will post them latter.

It's looking good Dan . keep up the good work.

Soory for not putting up some more pics...I just got back from the ER.

I was drilling the holes on the spring pertches and the drill bit caut, thus spinning the drill around ad whacking me in the temple. Only 5 stitches...but a sharper drill bit would have been cheeper.

Man, drills are terribleI tell yah. I had one of those big wire wheels on mine cleaning the engine perches and it caught the front of my gym shorts. Talk about the scariest day to date!

Ya I have done that too! The sorts needed to be changed for 2 reisions.

The drill is fine and I finished the holes today, then I took the part and threw it on the floor and did a little victory dance!

Cleaning the engine bay is a he!! of a job. I remember it well.
Your doing a great job, it looks great. I almost gave up on mine it was so much work, but I persevered.

I don't know if there is any out there that don't.

He was grinding down the welds that filled in the little groves left from where I cut the old pertches off.

progress is looking really good.



there has to be SOMETHING less harsh than the one I have haha. Guess searching is my best bet.

I get mine at Home Depot. They have 2 differant grits. Not sure what they are, I always get the most agressive one. O am going to try the other one next time.

Hey dont know if you solved your title problem or not, but I have good news. Kansas allows vehicles to transfer by bill of sale on antique vehicles! Get a bill of sale for the f250 and the 100 and you will be ok. Doesnt matter who it was titled too just that you have a bill of sale from the person from who you bought it from. REALLY that easy. Im a police officer in KS very close to you and deal with the issue alott. People make it far harder on themselves and often in pursuit of a title rather than a bill of sale get themselves in a bit of a pickle! By the way you still have extra disc brakes???? Maybe you want to sell??
