If you don't anchor the feet in the floor you have to connect each corner with steel bars so that the feet woun't spread appart.

And with the rest of the OEM Paint 1972-only, Robins Egg Blue paint that I had left over from the 72 T/A from a few years back. It was $50 a can back then. I don't even know if they are still in business making this stuff any more?

The wife helped me wheel it back in to the garage, in the dark, where it now sits waiting to go back in the car. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] </div></div>
Oh Steve I had one question were the 72's aluminum intake painted like this? and also thanks for the education in the unitized distributors!

Re: The New Project: Part Deux!
 

They were painted blue. The only time you see an unpainted one is when someone wants to display their shiny, cast aluminum finish. The factory painted the engines as complete assemblies.

Thanks! Another car I regret selling. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Here's how she looks now in the hands of Bob Bennett who did an amazing job and restoring the car. Awesome!

Just a reminder:
If you use Google Chrome, there is an add on that fixes the problem and displays the photos.

Looks like the old black car is up for auction at Mecum Indy in July:
