The car still had its original rotors at 114,000 miles, which were cleaned and resurfaced. I then redid the paint marks exactly as they were found. The pink paint was on the area where the maximum thickness measurement is cast into the hub: ".985"

Here's the rolling frame as it sits now. Next comes the steering linkage, next week. All the tie rod ends and drag link joints feel nice and tight. I'm just going to clean them up and reinstall them.

My wife had a yard sale and no one wanted the thing, so I dragged it into the garage. I think with some modifications it could be the next best thing to "Black and Decker Workmate". Who knows, maybe I can make it into a run stand for the next engine!

I'm trying to do all of the cheap labor-intensive stuff on my own (read that as when you got no money to spend, use your own labor). I already have the drivetrain finished. Next comes the rear differential and springs.

The major expense will be the body shell, which hopefully wont be that bad as it only needs the center section of the trunk floor replaced and one very small rust spot in the pass quarter, plus the usual 35 years of dents.
