Yes Alain, the Gardner hangers have labels for L + R. I'm talking about the washers under the bolts that hold the rubber straps. The outer edge of the washer should be off the rubber, not against it. they might be right now, it's hard to see. I'll look for a pic. Maybe I'm wrong. I think they make the washers different nor.

Hi all
Here are some photos of the overspray on the bottom of the car.
These W cars were rushed through the assembly process.
Trying to stay as original as possible

What is the "field trip damage "? I can't figure out where and what it is.
You are doing a really nice job on this great car. My friend back around 1972 had a blue one and that little 350 could really get up and go! It gave a Shelby GT 500 a pretty good run for the money, one night, back in the day!
Picked up the engine today from D&D performance in Chesterville On great people I recommend them
Putting it all together.Should have a rolling chassis this weekend
Will post photos
Alain
Looks good, nice work.
I see the fuel pump to carb line is a little off as far as bend goes. Are they all the same as far as vendors go? Where did you get that one and will you just bend to fit?
Thanks for the good words
The line is from inline tube .There is always some miner adjustment with any of the new lines
No biggy it is part of the game.
Alain
Thanks Jim
Mounting the tank was simple with the car on the lift
Screw tank straps in at the back Slide tank in
One person bolts straps in while the other holds it in place voila tank is in
2 person job
Alain
Thanks Rob for the reminder
But I did not forget about the stripes.You are correct about the colors
They will be painted a little later
Alain
P/S always good to get advice
Hi Alain, I was looking over your engine pics & I noticed it appears that you have your neg. battery cable bolted to the head, it's supposed to go to front corner of the block. Who did you get your radiator hoses from?? I bought mine from Fusick & I never liked the fit by the rad, it's too short, yours looks to be a little longer at the end than mine. You can see it in my old engine pic from 2013,it's a lot shorter.
Hi Rob
Will verify location of negative cable in the assembly manual
Got the hoses from Fusick they seemed correct.They must have made a new batch?
Thanks for the heads up
Alain
