Need to start cleaning out the insides. And get it waxed up.



We didn't know that the guy we bought it off of had a six pack of beer cans under the seat.. We found them about 2 weeks later.

wont be updating this to often for the next 6weeks id say.

gonna start buying suspension products and buying a whole new braking system.

on the suspension side... anyone know when they changed the mounts for leaf springs?
i cant order them for a 72 but may be able to from the 80s still... just need to know if anything really changed before i shell out cash.
thanks

I just received new leaf springs from JC Whitney for my '75. If I remember correctly, they were listed for '71-'77

hmm time for a mini update?
tint windows on all the side pop outs.
They are gonna get replaxed sometime this winter with the stock ones with chrome trim.
Just have to get them tinted then the trim reglued.

Also old rims/tires from bruised. they didnt have too many miles on them so they live on. Then wyatt put the hub covers on them lol.

If you look closely we waxed, waxed, waxed for hours one night. shines now... but def needs to be buffed out.
