Re: Paint on 3353.
Rare factory Armstrong shock and seldom seen Cobra heater. I believe the mileage is correct.

Re: Paint on 3353.
Some odds and ends here. Decided my wiring harness is a little tired so I ordered a new one which I won't get until July. Thought my piston rings were on the way but are no longer in production so custom rings have to be ordered. In the mean time trying to get a lot of little things done but very slow going at this point. The original brake pads could have been reused. The two piston pads had practically no wear. The single piston pads had almost all of the wear at all 4 corners. Those shiny clamps are the original that we saved since they are no longer produced. They looked pretty rough when removed but cleaned up pretty good. They have a kind of tin plating that had corrosion but most came off. Calipers got new pistons.

Re: Paint on 3353.
----Phil,,,Ive been waiting patiently for your next post. Thanks!!! Cant wait to see her done. The seat picture brings back memories of my cousins 65 (serial # 3003) comp car that I was too stupid to buy when offered to me. His car was surreal but I still like bone stock street versions best!!!......Bill S

Re: Paint on 3353.
Phil, thank you for the current shots. I can't wait to see this car in person some day. The street versions have really captured everyone's attention since so many were modified and replicas are nearly all S/C models.

Re: Paint on 3353.
I would like to have more pics to post but I keep getting delayed by little things.The new wiring harness should show up mid July and that should get us close to the end. Bought a set uf Sunburst wheels recently and the engine starts going together this weekend. I too really like the clean look of the street cars and it seems they have gained in popularity of late. Sorry you missed 3003 Bill. Tim, I hope to get the car out some when finished.

Like everything, the S/Cs have been done to death (real and replicas) and now the money wants the unusual cars, the pure street versions. I've seen at least one new CSX 4000/6000 built to street specs. |
