      @JoeSmith-pd6ck 4 месяца назад +1

      Yeah... I've been watching in order from the original "find" video... but the whole drive train has been done somewhere along the way that was missed it seems. I do find it difficult to follow as the title names have no consistency (hint-hint, like always 57 Rebuild FSG 11 or something). But you can watch ALL of the Playlist on RUclips for the 57 Project so that should be all of them in order (but the drivetrain is missing still even in that thread).

    I'm not sure about the setup of the steering on a 57, but on my 72 Chevelle, the steering arms on the disc brakes are in the front. I almost made the mistake of installing them in the rear of the brakes. Luckily, I realized before I assembled them that the linkage needed to be forward. Love to see you two back at it. I'm kinda reliving my build as you go through the process. Good luck, and stay safe!

At least from what I can see. So great to see you two back, and I’m loving this build, can’t wait to see more of this build. It seems to me that your little hiatus did you both well, you both seem to really enjoy making this video.

    Hi, so my wife and I are embarking on doing a frame to body restoration on a '57 Convertible ourselves and this is the most useful video of the whole process I've found. It's easy and fun to watch, so ThankYou. I would say it would be nice if the parts/supplies you use were always listed in the summary (and I'm noticing that for this episode they are)... The only thing missing that we will need to be doing is we're going to have to replace both rear quarter panels, cutting and welding those in... so gonna have to go a different channel for that unfortunately (never weirded before, and I think your approach would be have been very helpful towards me doing it (mostly) right the first time... oh well :-).
    Thanks again and hopefully I can share photos/videos of our completed project once we're done.

    @russmurphy7062 5 месяцев назад +1

    Y'all made a really good start. Four wheel disc breaks make total sense. Hardly anything uses drums now. It's a safety issue. The one thing I think y'all overlooked is powder coating the frame. I get making content is motivation for all of the scraping n painting. But the final product would outlast all of us. The frame is basically down to bare so it wouldn't be a huge stretch to take it all the way down. The kit you got for the disc brakes is fine quality. I don't have to mention Wildwood or Baer. Ultimately, it's your car. Build it the easiest way you can utilize.
