Nice fab work. New Sub

Hey, thanks! I’ll try to keep things interesting here!

Looks great I have an older esab welder they bring the heat. Always wanted to do this to my 59 but have not been able to commit lol

[@twistedimages405]

I picked up that ESAB plasma a couple months ago- did a quick cleaning and repaint, and it cuts like butter! Most of what we did on this '59 is reversible- the coil springs could go back in, and everything could be patched back up if someone wanted a stock restored car later. But I get what you're saying!

Transmission assembly lube on the threads of the bleeders on the brakes prevents air from getting by when bleeding.

@@tinkerne-round4079 thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely try that on the next one

We ran Ridetech part number 22169850 up front- shows a compressed height of 9" and extended of 15". For the rear we ran part number 22199850 - 12" compressed and 20" extended. Hope that helps!

Interesting caddy looks pretty cool. New sub here please keep us updated on that I would love to see that when its done ✔️. Last yr I acquired a 59. Sometime this yr I want to get the motor redone so It moves on its own power. Then I would love to see if you can work on the suspension and other things on my caddy just like you did on this one. I live in south Texas but I don't mind taking it up there, I believe you said your from OK if I'm not mistaken. It will probably be late this yr or even possibly next year as everything is super expensive on this car lol. So i was wondering How do I get a hold of your shops number - email or something where I can get a hold of you so i can ask questions for when I'm ready. I would really like for you to do my suspension if possible.👍🏻

Nice- getting hard to find ‘59s in any condition these days. Our contact info is on our website www.twistedimages.com - I don’t post my number on here because of the spam bots haha. But definitely feel free to reach out and we can put some plans together! -Phil

@Twisted Images yeah I understand what u saying about #.. thank you for replying. I'll probably email you to see if i can get a quote if possible. Thanks again

circuit breaker is backwards. curious about your lack of love for ride tech a arms?

[@twistedimages405]

@@j.d.stollwerck698 ha! Good catch. I’ll touch base with the owner, but I’m sure he’s caught that and flipped it back around to the correct orientation when reassembling the car. As for arms, I’m not aware of anyone making replacement control arms for this generation Cadillac? I know Choppin’ Block has some in the works, but until those come out I think your only option is rebuilding the stock parts for the front end?

[@TheRds797]

Looks great! Can't wait to get my son's AirLift kit for his 93 Caddy Fleetwood from you. Can you please email us the tracking number?

[@twistedimages405]

Hey man! We had to order in that blue air line for your order, but it's arriving today and I'll have the kit on its way to you! I'll definitely send tracking info as soon as it's boxed!

[@UberLummox]

Kinda fuct up looking truck conversion, but great work on your end!

[@twistedimages405]

Yeah, I think I like the lines of the other one we worked on better, but we'll see how they both look when the bodywork and paint is completed- the right color can help correct the proportions sometimes!
