No Pics either, but rebuilt my Ranco heater/water valve today. Will see how well I did when I test it tomorrow! It's kind of pain in the ass to replace that rubber seal but most places want a $100 to rebuild.

Hey Ray I gotta do the same to my car, what's all involved in taking everything apart?
Today I took the power mechanism and power seat tracks off my seat and put the manual one back on, I'm going to take it all apart clean and fix it, then re-install. I also replaced the dried into dust seat foam for some newer stuff, now I can drive with my windows down!!
Tomorrow I'm pulling the starter out of the 62 and figuring out my starter/shim issue I've got going on, then need to replace the heater core valve in it. Not really sure what to take apart and where to start.

Installed the new front end mouldings and also a NORS glove box. I've copied the markings on the back side of the original to the new one.

Below's the result of stripped paint and a cheap and manual "rechroming" of the taillight housings.
The housings where completely painted purple and the original chrome had been sanded down to the copper layer.
I removed all the paint and applied chrome stickermaterial for the time being until I find some decent replacement for these.
Looks good from a small distance...

I'm working on my 220 line for my MiG machine and adding a few more outlets over my workbench. It's a PITA for me as I can only work a short time before I have to lie down again to rest my aching back. Making any 1 hour job into a 2 week project. but at lease I'm making progress. . then a clean up. Then it's call the flatbed time.

PS my brother in New Jersey found a great car yard that the owner has kept everyone out of. He talked with him for a while and got the guy to let him in. he called me from the yard and asked me about my car as he found a complete 58 Firesweep there. He talked the guy into letting him take off the rust free fender I needed for $200. The yard owner won't allow my brother to take any photos of the cars for some reason. I reminded my brother that his phone has a camera and he took a shot of the car but he can't figure how to send it to me . ARGGGG. He says there a lot of complete FL cars there but so far I don't know anything else. I'll keep you posted if i hear anything

I have found that in DRIVING one of my cars in the course of meeting people that doors are opened to me where others have said they got nowhere.

A lot of people I have met out in the boonies are suspicious that some other sub-culture exists "out there" with "cityfolk"-types who are coming out to take all their goodies and rip them off somehow. A few times, even though I WAS wanting to buy something going in, had to just back off and be the guy with a similar interest and share our interest in order just to get to know a guy. I mean, you have to respect that some people are just as interested in what they own, or just don't want to sell, but CAN be interested in just chewing the fat and sharing their interest.

You are going to meet all types, but generally the "hoarding" collector types tend to fall into the introverted and extroverted opposites and little in between. Since I own the car I want, I really don't feel any pressing need to acquire anything more, and would just as soon make a new acquaintance with similar interests as anything else. Kinda freeing, really.

Yeah ... And you cannot imagine the number of people who thought it would be soooooo much cooler in red and white.
But I always loved the turquoise and white combination on US cars, so for me the choice has always been obvious.
And the good thing is that I have the door panels and dashboard padding color coordinated !!!
Not really a 100% match for the door panels, but it does not really have to ...
Yeah, I know, that interior is not going to be strictly original ... But I find it much better than the OEM plain black and white.

I put 15 miles on the 56 Plymouth during the heat of the day. Yes it's rather warm here in Sarasota already.

I had removed the guts from my thermostat at the suggestion of a friend with hopes that would eliminate the problem of my top radiator hose blowing off when the engine gets hot. So far so good.

The 408 stroker is about half way broken in with just under 500 miles on it. This engine really makes this FL fly.

Checked what should be done to the brakes after 16 years without driving.... noticed that brake drums are quite rusty and the rear brakes are actually missing!

Also noticed that there is no driveshaft at all.

While waiting news about the driveshaft, emergency brake and missing rear brake stuff from the Big M, I decided to fix the tail lights.

Chrome is fairly good but both red lenses are broken. I have a set of new lenses for replacement but when dismantling my taillights I found out that someone had earlier fixed the broken lenses and glued the red lenses to the white lenses and glued this lens package to the tail chrome with somekind of a SUPERGLUE! So there is no way to dismantle the lenses without breaking them... I guess I have to order also new pair of backup light lenses to get the job done.

We took Betty Lou out on on of the best cruises I have been on. We met up with about 30 classic cars of various makes and went on about a 160 mile road trip . all cars pretty well stayed together and made quit a sight at the three stops we made. A traveling car show with no entry fee! Pot luck chow at the end of the run. Great day- beautiful weather ......................MO

Mo, that sounds good. Someday I guess.......

I went out to the shop and looked at my car some more. As soon as my walking boot is off I will get busy again. Afraid welding spatter will catch it on fire now. And I got a lot of welding to do yet.

I changed the steering shaft insulator - it was in due time! Seems like all the rubber parts are falling apart after all those years....

Drove to a local weekly meeting and parked beside a competitor from 1955. Would never trade the Dodge

Looks like the blue '56 Ford is "hitting on" your Dodge and the Dodge is trying to ignore it.

This is the curse of desert cars in particular, though we know all rubber eventually rots.

I remember working on my '59 Plymouth back in the mid to late 1980s and having various grommets, bushings, etc. simply crumbling or breaking apart in my hands.

Scheduled an alignment for Thursday, bought vinyl for replacing the door panels, got parts ready to take to the anodizer, drove around the block on a milk crate for two more miles and then drank a couple of beers and starred at the car for a couple of hours. Not a bad day!!

I just changed all the rubber bushings for the swaybar! I ordered from KP USA-Bilar a friday morning and got all the stuff I needed with the post directly monday morning - great service!
Did a serious clean-up of the swaybar and all the washers and clamps followed by a touch of paint

Cut and buffed a few spots on the car. Then I took the sportone inserts and sill plates to the anodizer, can't wait to see how they turn out. Scheduled an alignment for tomorrow.

Got some of my parts back from the anodizer today. These were just stripped of the original anodizing, now it's a quick polish and a few fixes and back to the anodizer to get anodized. Also, dropped off my grill, eye brow and hood lip trim for stripping.
