I had to fully thread the caliper mount threads on these front disk conversion adapter plates. Seems like absolutely nothing has just bolted up on this car. Probably going to have to press out the wheel studs to run the 15x8 Weld Pro Star rims. 2.5 inch backspacing should set the outside edge of the front tires just about even with the outside edge of the rear tires, perfect for street driving !!!

Those are good heads. Definitely worth freshening them up and running em IMO

I shoved the carcass of the Hoe onto my trailer today. Off to the scrap yard when I get time to run it there..

Ever seen the free LS video? Guy parted out a van down to every last bit.

I finally got my ‘69 Dodge Sweptline registered…as well as the ‘76 I wanna sail.

Gotta demo the mohos and get the 440s out of them.

I have not.
I don't have time for that either. It's been posted as a part out since I pulled the engine.
Only had 1 inquiry.
This thing still had the cats, between those and scrap weight I'll probably come close to what my buddy sold it to me for..

Looks pretty good shape for the scrap yard

Brought this home from the scrapyard yesterday
16700 km frame slightly bent
If I can straighten it I have a 6 cord dump box I’ll put on it for wood delivery

I have a feeling you will get it straight.

Left the Hoe at the scrap yard..


I take all my junk to the same place. They said normally when it's missing the engine/trans they consider it incomplete and just go "by the ton", and deduct for tires.
He told me because I'm there regularly, he'd go cash offer or weight, whichever was higher.
I ended up with the cash offer, which happens to be exactly what my buddy charged me for it...
Going to be ordering up swap mounts for the Chevelle this week.

 

[Yukon Stihl]

No money in scrap metal here
Soon they will charge you to take it to the dump.

These showed up today.


My LS adapter plates should be here next week.
I'm hoping to finally get the engine bolted to the stand this weekend and maybe get the cylinder heads off.
