Freshly coated front suspension bits.
Just got some parts back from Kevin tonight, and quite pleased with the results. Parts will be assembled as I collect new bushings and such to be installed onto a non bent subframe I have sitting in the garage, with plans to eventually drop my old unit and roll the new one into place.
Lower control arms (minus new bushings) in red wrinkle finish http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...onparts003.jpg http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...onparts008.jpg Dust shields in generic black gloss http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...onparts010.jpg Spindle/knuckles done in red wrinkle finish http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...onparts013.jpg http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...onparts014.jpg Spindles and dust shields put back together http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...onparts019.jpg http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...onparts016.jpg http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...onparts015.jpg Brackets on the left are for the LCA's, Brackets on the right are for my manual steering rack (the big bracket is common to all the racks, but the smaller one is different between manual and power steering) http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...onparts020.jpg |
Great job on the parts, looks great. Are you planning to built a show car, or is it a DD or a track car. Just wondering?
|
The car is currently serving duty as daily driver until I get my Conquest up and running once more. The plan is to turn the FC into a track/weekend car, BUT should I manage to total the body I will more than likely pull the planned suspension off of it to salvage it into a possible show car.
Plus, powdercoated parts wont get nearly as nasty as they were originally when I pulled them off the junkyard car I snagged them from. The spindles were crusty, the lca's grungy, the brackets rusty and scratched. Cant even tell there used to be rust on anything, or there were scratches in it. |
They do look good, good luck with your build.
