Update On Shknbke

Recommended Posts

Name I've given my 72. Busy summer changing out a bunch of stuff. Here's a running tally to date

Aluminum Radiator

Rad/heater hoses

Holly 670 Street Avenger

Plug wires

Ceramic coated headers

Patriot side pipes (still only fab’d up, but functional)

PS pump, control valve, cylinder

Oil pan gasket

Timing cover & gasket

Harmonic Balancer

Tires

Suspension bushings

Composite rear leaf spring

Shocks

Sway bars, front and rear

Calipers and pads

Rotors

Brake hoses

Master Cylinder

U-joints on the half-shafts

Rear-end output seals

Front wheel bearings

Ball joints

Tie rods

All I can think of right now.

Also discovered I have a Turbo 400 instead of a 350 which is fine by me.

Next on the list, work on the interior, seats, and carpet

Finish the exhaust

Then getting some more HP into that motor. Not sure what I want to do here. Engine runs just fine, but would love to stick a ZZ4 crate motor in there. :bang

Looks like you found another woman that won't cause you a divorce.

Be sure to save a few projects for when that little guy gets old enough to be spending time out in the garage. I still remember working on my Dad's 49 Ford Woody with him.

He's getting his own car. I'm thinking mid to late 60's early 70's Malibu/Chevelle or even a Nova.

Sounds like great progress! Now that the garage is cooling off (and I've dodged the bullets at Intel) I will be getting back into my '69 Coupe. Keep up the great work :thumbs
