It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Thanks Steve, nice to see someone who has real taste in women, not like SOME people who will remain nameless.
Ken, and I bet you thought your thread would remain unscathed and strictly about car building, huh? Uncle Bob reminds me of that Mayhem guy on the insurance commercials..........whenever he is around trouble isn't too far behind.

Poor Ken. Just wanted to show us how he builds a cool hot rod and then Uncle Bob's evil twin has to show up.
It's all downhill from here, Ken.

I just found someone to help Ken when he gets to the paint part of the build. She isn't cheap but when money is no object who cares?
Jack.
P.S. I hope this one isn't over the line.

Ken I think we need to return to your framework! How are things progressing? Sorry for the deviations I inadvertantly started here!" "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.

Steve - This is the stuff that makes doing this more fun. Uncle Bob's female library is so BIG I bet he has to put them on a separate computer
Well I went to my guy that does the springs yesterday and got a real education on spring manufacturing.
I'm thinking this is pretty sophisticated stuff in this day and age...Not!
Here is the process,
First they cut the main leaf to the proper length. Then they turn it up on it's edge and make a 45 degree cut the width of the spring. This is done so when the eye is rolled it will lay flat against the width of the spring and make a true 360 degree opening for the bushing. Next it is heated so they can stick it into the manual machine that work's like a stretcher or shrinker, where it crabs the spring with serrations to pull it in and around the mandrel that creates the spring eye. He uses some sort of brass busings like Henry did instead of rubber. Once it's cooled he lays out where the bends will take place. This springs needs to be 40" wide, center of bushings, with a 12" rise in the center for rear end clearance.
This is the part that blew me away, this guy knows from experience how for and in what location to bend this on a manually controlled hydraulic press to get the correct centers and rise. It took him about 5 minutes to finish the main leaf. He made about 3 corrections and he nailed it.
I had to leave, but the front spring and the other rear leafs should be done today. I will follow up with the rest of this as soon as I get them back
