Since I "retired" last Friday, I now have way too much
time on my hands as Paul has oft said.
So little by little, every day the Crypt Car is shrinking
as pieces of Crypty get taken out and dumped in the trash.
Amos now has a third new coil spring- Driver's side
front. Scariest thing (to date) this non-mechanic TR owner
has attempted. I mean white knuckles the entire time I was
slooooooooooowly compressing the coil spring. Thanks Ben!
For the spring tool photos and walking me thru this
miserable task.
Upper and lower wishbone arms with new bushings installed.
Coil spring bottom pan installed and fastened to lower
wishbone arms. Coil spring still in compression contained
by tool. Amos looking better and better every day and maybe
more reliable than the Crypt Car as well.
Now some mandatory assist with the gardening chores.
And yes, Amos is getting a frame makeover of full strip,
Eastwood Rust inhibitor primer and two top coats of medium
grey acrylic modified two component epoxy urethane.
