First: Remove all paint.
Underneath as well.
I was lucky, No rust.
Weld seams for strength.
Clean and paint everything.
Spindles, brake parts...
Rear end..
Even the new tie rod ends
Bolt it all together
with polyurethane bushings
To get it ready for...
The Motor!
Motor out of the box.
Got to love it!
Out with the shoe horn...
It does fit; Honest.
See, told you.
Maybe a little tight.
Now that I can move it again,
We can see the ground clearance.
Next, clean and paint the inside.
Add Seats, steering column,
A Demon 850 double pumper,
Not to forget power brakes.
