That's good:-)
I am concerned about this company but have thrown caution to the wind..... Ryan

I have a plan for SMS:-)
If service or product is not excellent I will visit them and make my order with the owner or the company :-) Teamwork!! Ryan

Make sure that who ever installs the new material into the sail panels and the sun visors....
that the material is directionally installed correctly - an easy mistake for a rookie. Dan

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe
Hello Olds fans:-)
I mad a little "progress" if cleaning up and gaining a 9 square foot space is "progress"-) I wanted to start the front drum brakes but step one was a no-go:-( My J shaped brake line and wheel cylinder are not compatible, the thread is too big in the ws:-( I will return them. This is what things used to look like;-(

Many thanks:-) One step at a time, seems to be working so far. I stood in the garage cleaning up for a while because I was stumped as to what I should do next yesterday, turns out cleaning up was the next step and felt pretty good to get organized:-) I like to work from front to back or back to front, and that helps me get going. I look from one end to the other and either make a list of items I need to restore or order replacements, or if I have the parts prepped I install them:-) It takes quite a bit of prep to have a part ready to install!!!! Ryan

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe
Inline Tube called right away to explain that my wheel cylinders are 1964-1967, and they had an error previously in their system. Now corrected and they said to bring them in for the correct parts:-)
Great customer service!! Ryan

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe
What is old is new again........
I was given the contact information and a recommendation to discus my engine build with one of the lead machinists at the very first place I researched and visited. We had a quick chat to discuss main goals and such, now we will get together and discuss the details. I am looking to push my limits and assemble the engine myself. I am learning so much and enjoying this restoration so much it would be a shame to miss this opportunity to build my own engine. I will receive a machining quote, and have a parts cost figured out, (I will check if everything is the same or less cost purchased through this company) I also will have a time and material rate so any fine work such as degre-ing the cam, or checking valve train geometry can be done T&M This feels right and if I make a mistake I will learn from it. The risk is mine to take and I am getting off the Porch!!! As you know I was hands off for the M20 transmission rebuild, and that has been a major jump forward. Nick has offerered to show me how to assembly a Muncie 4 speed:-) I will take him up on this, possibly to assemble my M22? Ryan
