Steel conversion link
« on: September 11, 2015, 02:02:12 AM »
While googling up info for 32' Chev E-brake handle. I found this link.
Something to look at while converting from wood to steel .
Good info here. Also some great fab work.

They do nice work!
Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

That is a good link, with lots of good info and pictures. I replaced what little wood was left in my car when I built it. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be and I'm glad I switched to metal, but I would have liked to had these pictures back then.
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn
