    All A/C hoses are complete. They all have one straight end so there's no clocking to worry about and they can all be removed in one piece. Front radiator hoses done. Lower rear coolant hose (to water pump) done. Upper rear coolant hose (from thermostat) in process. The hoses from the oil filter...

    Lately I've been working on wiring and it's coming along well. I'm reluctant to cut these holes in the dash structure so I am working on alternatives. A few steel parts powder coated.

    This is great advice, thank you. A few years ago I was at a small car show and there I found Bill Musarra's CAV. It definitely got a lot of attention! Especially from me.

    Thanks for mentioning this. I did a trial fit with no springs installed and the tires were touching the body in bump travel but it was close. Since then I narrowed the rear track width slightly plus a little more negative camber. I have yet to re-install the rear clip to check the clearance. I...

    It was a lot harder to make these switch panels than I thought it would be.

    Kit delivery

    They are typically delivered mostly complete so while some parts may be back ordered, there will be plenty to do to keep you busy in the meantime.

    Catching up on my log. Most of what I have been doing is "routine" so I am only detailing what might be of interest. I finally installed the fuel tanks for the last time. All you can see is a 3/8 stainless pickup fitting and a vent hose. The wires for the gauge go through the side and aren't...

    Bryan's RCR40

    I decided to switch to the first steps of body preparation while waiting for some parts for the fuel tanks. I measured the width of the front and rear clips where they meet the rockers. The rear was 66" and the front was 65.5". I found it easy to stretch the front to 66". Then I set the rocker...

    Yes, the Deluxe Plus kit. My understanding is that it's assembled for shipping only and it needs to be disassembled and then reassembled in a suitable manner for driving.

    I've been working on many things but my main goal is to finish the fuel tank install. With filler hoses, supply hoses, pickups, vents, gauge senders, and mounting brackets, it's a lot to do. The supplied senders were too tall to fit into the tank so I exchanged them for shorter ones. I...

    I spent the last several days fitting the dash and plenum and relocating the wiper to the left side.
