1972 And 2012

I finally got to the point where I needed the tires on to make the inner fender wells and finish the flares. I decided to use Toyo T1R 195/45/15's on all corners. For comparison, I put a Toyo in front of the 245/45/20 Firestone on my wife's car. What a difference.

More Changes

After installing the pedal assembly, I put in the steering column and a Miata seat I had. Apparently they are substantially different than stock seats because I had less room than before I started the project. I'm going to use different seats but I decided to move some of the rear sub-frame braces for more clearance.

New Equipment

After installing the pedal assembly, I decided to modify the HF bead roller I've had for a couple of years. Since it takes two people to operate it as it comes from the store, I decided to put a variable speed D.C. motor on it. After checking out the forums for sheet metal working, I came up with this. It should make the rest of the sheet metal work a lot easier.

Pedal Mounts Part II

Even with bracing, the brake pan seemed to have some deflection so I built a new mount assembly. I made two sets of mounting holes an inch and a quarter apart for gross adjustment and the pushrods can be adjusted for smaller amounts. I'll add the side panels and cover later.
