Ok, it has been quite a while since I have worked on this project. I am now back on it again and plan to work on it until it's finished. I did a lot of work on it this weekend, mainly working on the front frame rail. I purchased a 69 coupe donor car a while back and pulled the drivers side frame rail to replace mine. I separated the frame rail to gain access to the inside so that I could check for rust and coat it to keep from rusting in the future. I started taking some measurements and found that the coupe frame rail is about an inch shorter than the convertible. It looks like the tab that the toe board welds too is going to be about an inch short of touching. It's not a big issue for I can fab up a piece and extend it. I was wondering if anyone else has run into this problem. I thought all the front frame rails were the same.

I'm with you on this Mike, I think if I had some dimensions for the parts I could definitely make my own. The rods and ends can be purchased separately along with the coil overs. Maybe there is someone out there that has installed one of the kits will help us out.

I have a couple of those from my 70 parts car if interested. The hinge pieces that is.

Sorry Chappy, I had computer issues, resolved now. Here is a photo of the bracket. If you want it just PM me.

Here are the pics I promised. I will remove the pedal and dash support if you do not want them and I will also bead blast and prime for you. The rust on it is all surface rust from what I can tell. It is off a 70 with manual drum brakes.

You may have missed this, but you probably should read the description of this forum. Don't want the site administrators to come down you for posting an ebay item.

I'll take a photo of it and post it to make sure it is what you need.

I just purchased a 70 coupe parts car that has this part. Do you need the whole bracket and pedal? It is an automatic car.

I just finished my back seats. I used a double layer of burlap, a layer of jute felt and two layers of one inch cotton batting. I did a a little extra cotton in some places that need a little moore padding. It was a pretty easy job. Now the fronts are giving me a fit. I bought new seat buns and it just seems like they are too big for the TMI covers.

I finally finished the rear seats. I still need to take a hair dryer and try to get some of the wrinkles out. They are mainly fold wrinkles from packaging. I think they turned out pretty good but a not a professional job. I'm still waiting on my front seat buns.

I paid $14.95 a pair at CJ's. I just finished putting a pair on one of my front seats. I've got the burlap installed on all the frames. I'm still waiting on my buns. I did get a roll of cotton batting and some jute felt for the back seat. I hope to get starting covering the back seat over the weekend.
