  • We found a cheap trunk floor for the abandoned tri five Chevy build! It's buried in some guy's storage building. While we wait for him to dig it out let's prepare the trunk area for the installation. We're pushing this tri five project forward as fast as we can. Let's get this classic car back on the road!
    Here's the tools I used to cut this trunk floor out!

    The car was stuffed full of parts when we rescued it czcams.com/video/742TuYVh10Q/video.html

    Invest in a Blair spot weld cutter. It saved my sanity when replacing 2 quarter panels on a 66 Fairlane.

      I'm going to do that. Was thinking about it the entire time. 66 Fairlane...nice!

    I like this channel because it reminds me the most of watching myself work. Not some over qualified mechanic on a very over edited show. I also have to do this same job on my 55

      I'm glad to hear that. I hope your 55 project goes smooth & you get to enjoy the car as soon as possible. Thanks for hanging out.

      I'm excited for you! It won't be long & you'll be cruising. We need to get these cars back on the road. Thanks for hanging out & watching the videos.

      Hopefully or we'll order one & move to a different part of the car while we wait.

    Ive seen those coil over shocks before. Ive also seen them shoved up thru the floor pan.

    • @freemansgarage
      @freemansgarage  Před 2 lety

      A good set of train tracks will put em through the floor!

    Good luck but take it one step at a time.

    Are those rear shocks some sort of old timey coilover helper springs?

    • @freemansgarage
      @freemansgarage  Před 2 lety +1

      Yes. I've seen this before on cars I've brought home. Almost always on 2 door cars. My guess is people did it to make the rear sit higher for a cool look. A 70's thing I do believe. If you go back to the video you'll notice a piece of bailing wire & a short section of galvanized pipe on the drivers side shackle. This was the previous owners high school car in the 70's & I'm assuming that was also an attempt to raise the rear.

    In all honesty here in ga. I just gave up on trying to get stuff from other people the hassle just isnt worth it

    • @freemansgarage
      @freemansgarage  Před rokem +1

      I completely agree with you. It really does seem that way.

    Looks like you'll be ordering a new trunk floor to keep the project moving.
