That was a couple weeks ago and I since removed the rear axle and springs assembly to clean and prep the new trunk floor for paint. THAT was a bear, laying on a creeper and getting as wet as the car. I still need to do finish grinding of welds in tight areas and sand them.
Soooo, I gave in and did what I said for 15 years I wasn't going to do with this car...

Went out in the back shed and dug out the rotisserie...




I bought this from a guy who built it to restore a '69 Firebird. It came with these adapters for the rear spring mounts, so I thought this would be a quick knockdown from the arms I built for the '67 GTO and my '66 Chevelle.




I spent 3 HOURS trying to figure out how he had those rear arms on the lifts, because no mater how I arranged the drilled holes he made they would NOT line up...
I finally gave in and just drilled new holes for them to fit the car and moved on.



I have 6' rectangle tubes to fit on the forks for this stuff.
