 I built the 455
about 5 years ago, but the car had to go into storage before the motor was properly broken
in. However, I just HAD to get on it once before I put her to rest, but I got a little
carried away. Something let go, but then got put away without my seeing the damage. Two
weeks ago I finally tore the motor back down, and this is what I found. Ouch! |
Here's a shot of all the front suspension pieces (and some other misc. parts) awaiting
their turn with the sandblaster. A majority of the suspension pieces are going to be
powdercoated before re-installation. |

...and for
moving the front of the frame around the shop, I utilized this castoff air compressor. One
bolt in an existing hole in the frame extends down into a hole in the top of the tank.
This allows me to move pivot when I steer. Very handy! You know what they say about
necessity being the mother of invention!
