Good day gents. Back in the States after a last min. extension/deployment and got straight to work. A little ride around the block in the Bakersfield heat and she did just fine. On a different note to make her really road worthy I need the to rebuild the front end. Has any one used the kanter kit?

More bad news. The shop that was doing (was going to do) the work on the packard did nothing and lost or sold the parts I gave them. For me not to press charges they gave me a 65 mustang. So I want to get rid of the packard since I am a ford man at heart. any offer will be considered I know with out the work they were going to do it's a 1000(or less) dollar car.

Just sent her to the body shop to get media blasted and repair rusted out metal. I will post some pics when she gets done being blasted.

What company have you guys got reporduction floor pans/ boby panels? I was looking at Kanters prices vs. c2c and they are about double.

Joey, why yes I did. My buddy has a small blasting cabinet in his gun shop just big enough for the rims to fit. Now I find myself in the same position you were in finding the right tires for the right price.

I'm having a hard time removing the drums off my 51. Is their a clip, or bolt? Next course of action will be heat and hammer unless you guys tell me otherwise.
