      That’s the fun in building these cars, sometimes parts “are” available, just no “kit” for the application… so modifying things to make the parts work is always the challenge/ rewarding part in the end

    I’ve got a’64 Galaxie convertible that I’m driving and this winter I’ll be rebuilding the front suspension . The car has power assist also and I might just go the Borgeson kit route also to reduce the number of leak points underneath. Keep up the good work , looking forward to next video . The power assist also limits header company choices .

      Thanks Brian, next episode has some homemade suspension mods that I might just need to make for all my old fords! All the best to you as well

    Oh man! I spent a lot of time working on these old cars many years ago. If I was to twist myself under a dash today, you'd probably have to call ems to extricate me.

    Maybe the most common words from first time dads, "Wow, that's a lot of poop..." LOL Seeing that steering assembly on the floor makes it obvious how 60s designers had really different goals. Many sloppy joints - not a problem. They wanted smooooth controls. Luxury! Fingertip steering. Precision? What's that??

    Hey, Old car. I'm looking at those floors and I think that you are in denial 😊. I hate working under the dash as well. I rolled around on the floor for 3 years. Then I bought a hoist. Man, my back sure feels better now.
    I noticed you had an Ontario plate in your car. Where are you located, if I may ask? Keep up the good work. Thanks for sharing.

    Rack and pinion would be cool too, but it’s about twice the price

    Don't recommend you watch what McCool did with a 66 stang recently... after a number of years I've finally unsubscribed from that sadly deflated channel. Hope all is well with you and your Dad doing things right by Ford's :-)) Love this old Fairlane. :-)
