Hey Brett.
Good eyes. After blasting the drums I noticed that. Upon further inspection with a small chisel it turned out to be extra material from the original casting. The drums are in good shape

I'll try to report on all the things I have done recently, starting with projects that I have finished or am almost there. Fuel tank is done and reinstalled in the ca...

I thought I could get away without it but it does move a good amount when I tested it out tonight. Speaki...

Another update for today as I got a bunch of time in the garage today. I fabricated the side exhaust that I mentioned in the last post... Like I mentioned previously, somebody put a cherry bomb muffler at one point. It was set up fart can style, all tweaked under the car. It stuck out the bottom a b...

12/10 Update. Brakes, dash, and exhaust. Hope everybody is doing well! Got a chance to work on the car a bit, thanks to being on call for work and not getting called out :) I have been splitting my time between the car and my wine/beer/lounge room build right now (and regular family stuff too). All ...

Sounds good. Even better than mine which is smoking like a b*astard so it looks like a re-build or transplant are in my future.
