McMaster Carr

Thanks Matt...

Thanks Matt for the detail on the steering wheel construction, it is quite impressive in terms of quality and speed. A further question on linkages , is there an Australian supplier of the Bent-Swivel Ball Joints ?? My best efforts have located them at McMaster-Carr in the US.. Regards Norm

What no cold beer either ??

Matt, looking forward to the steering wheel build !!!

Looks great Matt, what material is the welting (?) under the body runners ? Norm.

HI Matt, have you rubbed the mudguards back or are the as sprayed ? Enjoyed your work during the year, Merry Christmas to you and your family ...Norm

Mark, thank you for another well documented restoration process Kind Regards Norm

At Ford they recorded pouring 12 gallons of paint over a body and one gallon sticking !

Matt, An interesting project do you a design in mind ? Norm

Hugh, Great work and thankyou for the knowledge... Norm

Hi Matt, More talented work from you, I have the very same rust repair to do, my thought is to weld a thin strip to the edge to form the 90-degree bend around the curve. Bead rolling around a curve is past me... Earlier you mentioned using spotted gum for the main runners what is your timber of choice for the rest ??? Thankyou for giving us a great insight into restoration techniques.

Hi Matt, Great work, what gauge of sheet metal are you using for rust replacement ? Thanks Norm

Matt, Great work . Question on dowel length, they appear longer than the originals. ..Norm

On board now Thanks Matt looking forward to your next installment .. Norm

Hi Matt, Great documentation of the process, I am part of the angled challenged group, I see the 15 degree guide on your jig with your blade at 90 degrees but a 3 degree compound cut ? Regards Norm

Ryan, thanks for the update, the sheet metal will be my biggest challenge. Thankyou for letting us follow your journey....Regards Norm

Hi Ryan, How did you fair with the rear tub construction? Norm

Kevin do you have the posts ? Norm

DR Google also suggests that QCells are easily sanded; makes the ideal filler to glue in fin boxes and legrope plugs and is suitable for repairing “dings” in surfboards.
