just a small update, I finished up the yoke for the 9 inch

 

 

 

 

 

I dropped it once, I thought it was a gonner, luckily I found it!   thanks for looking

[Scale-Master]

Beautiful!  Just gorgeous! 

I know that sinking feeling... I swear, sometimes I think I spend as much time looking for parts I've dropped as I do making them...

thanks Mark, really means a lot!, I think I've spent more time on my hands and knees now than I did when I was kid pushing cars and trucks around, I'm glad I'm not the only one!

I keep a flashlight on the floor.  At least I always know where it is…

Heaven forbid I drop something in the garage (where I do my machine work and real car stuff) and it hits the concrete.

 

My wife finds stuff I can't after (what seems like) hours of searching in (what seems like) seconds or minutes.

 

Oh the days... when rug burns were a source of real achievement.

Wait, finding that lost part is an accomplishment!

I don't say this to many of the fellas but Bill, your rear end is amazing.

 

I'm in utter awe of your mad and creative skills. Carry on brother.

[antiliers]

Im sorry im new but I just had to join to say what you have done is amazing. I was just trying to learn how to strip a screwed up paint job and I found this thread and could not stop checkin out the next page of pics, well now I have to check out the rest of the site and I can't wait to see your next update

[John Teresi]

Bill.......FABULOUS work..........look forward to every up-date

[tooltas]

this a car is going to be a heavy sob  its omost a decast car,,,,,,,,,, but its so cool.

[Alyn]

Bill, the yoke looks spot on. Are you planning on machining a cross shaft for a fully functioning u-joint? I'm guessing "yes"

 

Derek, if you haven't already checked out Bills California Charger, do youself a favor and do so.
