Falcon Progress

I've been working a lot on the car late at night and thought I'd throw some pictures up. I've stripped quite a bit of paint, rust and dirt off the side and bottom of the car. I've also started to put the rubberized undercoating on the car. The major accomplishmnet has been the measuring, welding, cutting and assembling involved with installing the 4 link rear suspension. You wouldn't believe the trouble it was to cut out the bushings in the front leaf spring pockets. Now that it is all assembled I can see that the brackets on the axle housing are spot on and the pinion angle is within range. Last night I rebuilt the brakes and put the wheels and tires on. I need to cut out 1,4 of an inch from the lip on the inside of the wheel well for proper clearance, but the wheels tuck right into the welss perfectly. After the cutting and minor panhard bar adjustment I'll post pics of the new brakes and tires installed. It looks amazing! At the bottom you can see my little apprentice--he's the future Mikey Tuttle of my shop! Kidding--he did an awesome job sweeping up the dust and keeping me company.
