Drill an extra hole behind the last steering box bolt to help let water and dirt out of the rail . Owned a blue slant Pacer in the early 80s . Man there were better Pacers in the wrecker in them days 😢.

Good to see you back again. As others have said, I would recommend some copper grease on the stainless bolts and do them up by hand, not the ugga-dugga. Look forward to seeing more updates.

Looks good . I like the idea of keeping the riverbed history.but I would paint with POR50 all the chassis k frame under car inside the cabin hoot ect . It will last for ever and show off all the new bits you have worked hard for Nice work

Use copper slip or something to lube the bolts as you replace them especially stainless also with the stainless don't use your ugaduga it can cause no end of problems when the threads bind up . But gkad to see some progress on the car

Just go over the gloss black lightly with a scotch cloth/green chux sponge that should give it a satin look

You should of put anti size on X member bolts and don't put nolathane bushes in top wishbones bro it stresses the ears out on chassis plus you should put a sleeve kit on both rails last forever mate had mine 40 years done all that back in the 90s when no one wanted a pacer

When you originally said you intended to restore this car, I was very happy. I was sad when you decided to leave it patina. But when you say it costs $140 for four damn bolts, then I can see restoration is just not affordable at all. Do it your way and I will keep watching!

The K frame.. when installing...take a point of reference from each side of chassis.k frame installed loose and line up..pay off later with wheel tracking..🤔🤟

Fantastic to you back on the Val, Just as a side note, have you checked to see if there's no issues with ownership or the likes. Hate to see you get to the end have issues.

Stainless steel screws/bolts are exactly what you should NOT use on a K frame. They are nowhere near high enough tensile strength to hold structural members together. An engineer would defect that immediately And the factory K frame bolts have a locating bulge/taper under the head which locates the K frame on the centre line of the bolt holes. Critical for correct wheel alignment.

wurth rust converter in the spray can can be sprayed over rust to seal and stop it and since its clear still gives a patina look even though the rust turns a shinier darker brown. plus is a resin based so it lasts. dont use the CRC stuff since it wont last without overcoating. careful with those stainless bolts.... have found they tend to crack or even crumble on the thread part

Yer should be high tensile bolts , stainless is a soft metal it stretches not safe for that kind off use mate
