Another New to FEBO, not F*BO

Hi Everyone,

I’m giving a quick intro in the FEBO board (previously read lots on the FBBO board) as I’ve now picked up a 74 Cuda 4spd w//360. I’ve been jumping between all the F*BO for years now as I can’t get enough of Roadrunners, Cudas and Dusters. :thumbsup:

I’m hoping to dive right in, start chopping out the metal that needs to be replaced, and start modernizing the car (EFI, all-around disc brakes, etc.)

Looking forward to seeing some new and familiar users.

How-To Replace Rear Frame Rails?

Hi All – Does anyone have a good step-by-step thread on how to replace the rear frame rails by the leaf spring mounts (I need to replace the first 8ish inches on each side).

I’ve tried following the complete frame off rebuilds but most have a frame rack or several tubes holding the car in place because they removed so much metal. Is it necessary to weld those cross braces in place if I’m removing most of the trunk pan each frame rail, one at a time?

Thanks –

Greg

Dual Feed Card and Pressure Regulator Setup Recommendations

Hi All- I’m working on a 360 and am going to swap out the current carb for a Holley Dual Feed.

How many of you are using in-line fuel pressure regulators, and if you are, what are you using and where are you measuring the pressure?

I’ve seen some setups where pressure is measured before, between the feed lines, and some where the pressure is measured on the outlet side of the furthest feed line.

Length of 1970 Roadrunner Different from 68-69?

Hi All-

I’ve been looking at a number of 1970 RRs and it appears that the length is shorter than the 68-69. Was there a difference in length of the 1970 RR compared to a 68-69 RR? Is there any difference in length between the 1970 RR and a 2-door Satellite?

My research shows they are all the same, and maybe it’s just the way the images are taken, but does anyone know for sure?

Test Paint Results with The Restoration Shop Plum Crazy Metallic

Hi All-

I have seen a number of threads discussing the variation in Plum Crazy paint, depending on who the vendor is. For those looking for a budget alternative to PPG, here are the results of a test spray I did on the back of a 72 Roadrunner and an…

How to Paint an interior?

For those of you that have painted the inside of an entire car during a resto, how did you paint the inside of car at one time without bumping into anything while you were moving around the inside? Or did you do it in sections and it just looks like one spray job from the photo updates?

Anyone put the car on a rotisserie and rotate 90 degrees so you could be standing through the window opening? I’m trying to plan ahead.

Thanks
