New Introduction

Starting to get some things done on the wife's 66 model Jetstar 88. The front suspension and steering linkage is out and the front disk brake conversion kit is on order. The control arms have been stripped and repainted and the bushings replaced along with the ball joints. I will replace all the steering linkage along with the shocks and springs. It's been almost a month since placing the order for the disc brake kit so it shouldn't be too much longer for it to arrive.


The plan is to replace the 330 with the 455 and a better transmission. That's going to be a winter project for next year.
