Very nice. I did this on my 1974 40 earlier this year. Messy job.

I didn't really mind it (still have the passenger side to do though) a lot of guys say they don't like doing it. I'd be happy to do theirs though. I'm in the Denver area if anyone's interested haha

I feel the same way. If I had a big parts washer it would be my favorite job so far. This 69 is a driver, my 72 resto got extra attention. I had to tear down 3 axles to make one good one.

That looks awesome! Do you have a build thread on your resto?

PS I'm sure you noticed the calipers are upside down/on the wrong side....:cheers:
 
@blossett I like the looks of the drop on that pitman arm. Do you remember where you got that from?
 
I'd wrapped up my OME install a few weeks back, but I've been cleaning up my wheels, painting them, and got some new shoes put on. Hacked off the last 2 feet of my exhaust as well, as the way it was bent didn't clear the gap between the anti-inversion shackle and the tire. But it's all better now! I wish the post from @blossett had popped up a couple weeks sooner, as I thought about doing my wagon wheels in grey, but couldn't find a good picture. Oh well, they're white for now!

How are you running the long jump seats with the roll bar? PO did the same thing on my 1970 and I am feeling like I need to pick one or the other.
 
I can take some pictures for you later if you'd like. Anything in particular you'd like shots of? The roll bar is definitely not OE, but I feel like the way the jump seats are mounted are. I don't know how the original owner got everything to fit, but it works well and the hardtop fits nicely as well.

Yes please, if you could snap a few pictures that would be helpful.
