    Crazy 67 fastback prices

    Man I guess I am lucky... After seeing that ad, I am feeling real lucky. I went through a bit of searching and then got lucky to find a completely rust free fastback from someone in a forum which I bought, for what I felt like at the time was a lot. But I paid it and was happy with it. Now...

    Gauge paint issues...need a little help from the pro's

    Model Paint That is fine to replace the paint at the bottom that is missing. It isn't that much and wouldn;t hardly ever be seen anyway. The thing I am more worried about fixing is the "stain" or drip mark on the face of the gauge. It goes from from the top numbers all the way to the area...

    POR15 Question.....need some help fast...

    I recently bought several cans of the POR15 rust preventative paint along with one can of etch primer and 1 can of chasis black. After going over the instructions a little bit before it was painted, we found out the guy who painted it got the car to metal in most areas, there were probably a...

    Need help qith dash gauge paint..

    Gauge Paint Would that be better than buying the faceplate new? do they even sell these without the entire instrument? I also have to figure out a way to get the drip stain removed. I will look at the testors paint, but I am concerned that I will not be able to match that matte/satin black...

    Need help qith dash gauge paint..

    I took apart the dash bezel on my 67 fastback in order to paint the needles as they have faded over the years. Somehow, something at some point in this cars life was dripped or seeped into the tach and made a drip mark on the face of the black gauge and settled on the bottom. I have 2 problems...

    Rear rotors and calipers

    What numbers do I need to find or how can I determine what Rotors I will need to purchase to put on my rear end. I posted a question similar to this earlier but didn't get much info. Here is a pic of the single piston calipers that are on there now. Also, here is a link to the other post I...

    Splines in a 9" rear end????

    I need a little help if possible. I checked the flanges on my 67 fastback and according to info I read, if the flange has 2 holes it is one size and if it has a larger oval hole it is another. If one side has the 2 holes and ther other has the oval hole, how do I know what is in the rear axle...

    Spindles and calipers

    spindles Thanks for the input. My intension is to ditch the brakes all the way around and just buy new single piston calipers and rotors for all. I will chuck the rotors, which I believe are complete junk, and can use the calipers as cores. If I ditch the rear calipers, I can get whatever is...

    Spindles and calipers

    Lower Control Arms Jay, Thank you for clarifying for me. I checked my new lowers I just got, and I have the 4 bolt ones. When I checked the pictures I got, although I cannot actually see the bolt holes, it seems very apparent to me that I have the one with 2 bolt holes. Check...

    Spindles and calipers

    Spindles Thanks for the replies, but some of it seems conflicting. Basically, if I have 68 or 69 spindles, does that mean I am going to have to return the 67 lower control arms I have bought and buy 68 lowers? I am going to reuse the strut rods that are there, and just replace the bushings...

    Spindles and calipers

    Spindles Jay, When you say they are interchangable, does that mean I can use the 67 lowers I have if that is a 68 spindle? Or I would have to change over to the 68 lower? As far as strut rods, there are rods on there that are already connected, so I was just going to clean those up...

    Spindles and calipers

    Spindles To be honest, I don't know if it is floating or not. When I got the car, the calipers were hanging from the coil springs by bungee cords. I do have a couple pictures of the back side of the front wheel. I don't know if those will help, but it is all I can get for now. Where on...

    Spindles and calipers

    I need a little help with spindle and caliper info. I am going to be finding some casting numbers (hopefully) on my spindles for my 67 fastback this weekend. I need to find this out so I can purchase new rotors and calipers. I have already bought some parts, which may need to be returned if I...
