Reactivating this old thread to ask the "dippers" what vendors they used to get the trunk lid dipped and then e-coated?!

My rear trunklid and hood sound like rattles when I pick them up and move them from the rust rolling around...(63 vert).

Thanks for the help.

Solid...did you ever run a shop to ground on doing your body work? I know a few you can get in touch with locally....dont know how booked up they are. One of them I can't remember the name of right now, but he is down South on Hwy 1 near Triangle/Quantico area. He had a black 64-ish (couldn't see th...

Awesome...I need to go take a look. I am going to pull the springs and struts up front and fab some rods for ride height measurement so I can get the struts made. I was thinking about how I was going to make the top mount work...once I get away from my government computer and can see the pics, I wil...

Radiator has Cobra brackets bolted to it and it looks like they were made for this little spot right here....which the radiator tucks into nice and easy. https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5667/20516455232_5d8c3be9e1_c.jpg The tubing here needs to get notched back a bit for some clearance for the radiat...

Dan...I am going to put together some pictures tomorrow on the rear window auto drop relays...John Draxler did my whole rear set up but there is no provision for the relay for the auto drop feature and I have the part numbers and source of John's relays, just need some "executive consultation&q...

Looks GORGEOUS!!

I am cracking on my beast as well....weather is nice, got a new garage, and more motivation cause the wife is pregnant...so I have about 7 months to get the car finished if I want to ever see it running again!!

topsdrops...no, it doesn't matter what year motor if it is a modular 4.6L or similar motor based on that block architecture (think 5.4L only you will have problems with hood clearance).

Whoa, whoa, whoa on the "lotta as of yet unsuccessful attempts." As you can see from what the other folks here have outlined, unless you have purchased your car (at what price??) and have a good 50 g's of expendable cash lying around, it takes a good bit of time to work on one of these con...

I am going to run the Gen IV and make it work in my stock dash. Just plan on gutting what you dont need and make sure you get some new vent piping from them so you can run it how you see fit to make it all work. Worse case, you can visit the upholstery shop after and have them make some carpeted cov...

I am wondering who your EEC IV guru is? You are in New Orleans, so if you havent talked to Cody at StangHi Performance in Baton Rouge, he is a guru as well and has a dyno to sort her out. BUT, before you get there, dont reinvent the wheel. Call these guys: http://dunne-rite.com/ Check out my build p...

Nice....thanks for your service! One thing is for sure...sitting out here makes you obsess UNCONTROLLABLY about whatever project you may be working on back home!! In my case, it's my love and my lady...my 63! I think I have walked through my list of to-do's about 10 times already and I have spent a ...

Guys....(and girls if you are out there), I am sitting here in Afghanistan and I got the word I am not going where I thought I was, but staying in Northern VA for a bit...the "Beast" is stored in a nice garage of a family friend in Alexandria and I will get back to work thrashing on her wh...
