Interesting question. Is there even an anchor point in the roof or B pillar? During a restoration....that would be an excellent time to weld in a recessed nut to retain a seat belt. I used XV motorsports 3 point belts in my '70. If they are still selling them, I'll probably install them in my...

Is it common to paint cars such ugly colors in Mexico? Christ.... the green is terrible and the other one isn't good either. I like the styling of the cars though.

The broken bolt looks like Chinesium. I’m glad you got it out.

I mean no offense when I state this but I am amazed to learn that there are car guys that don't have a welder or can't weld. I'm not a great welder but can get it done. Not having that ability really limits the ability to fix and fabricate on these old cars.

I agree that it is a good practice but I don’t believe it is absolutely necessary. Lately I’ve had low tolerance for playing it safe when there is rarely a benefit from doing so. Why? Because America.

No, you don't. You think alignment techs do that when they set ride height? I rarely ever lift the car to work the adjuster bolts. I've owned several of these cars and never broken a bolt once.

Weld a nut on the end and crank it out.

I have commented a few times before about the need for a sub forum to help members determine a reasonable value prior to listing something for sale. I have often had some parts that I wanted to sell but have not seen them advertised by others so I didn't know what the value was. I don't want to...

The 1967 models still had that stud mounted idler arm. 1968 models had the far better "through bolt" idler mount. I don't think that anyone makes a Fast Ratio idler arm for the 1967 and older models. The 1968-69 K member will bolt in your car though, allowing you to use the better design.

Hey, you look taller on TV.

I've read that some of the aftermarket UCAs are made from a thinner gauge material. If I went with aftermarket ones, I'd go with the tubular ones.

Man, those engines sure fill the engine bay. Looks pretty nice, sir.

I love seeing weathered original type cars. That is great.

The advantage of rear disc brakes is related to reduced wheel lock up and consistent performance. Discs don’t fade as easily and if they are proportioned right, they don’t lock up as easy. Drums tend to have an exponential factor where you can be mildly braking and just a little more pressure...

Score!

I saw that you were looking for the plastic splash deflectors. Are they year and model specific? I have several that came from A and B body cars. The B versions seemed to often be riveted on. The A body ones I have were fastened with small screws.

After having a floor shift and console in many performance cars, a bench seat and column shift seem interesting.
