Project BLUEprint, 1965 Falcon

[The Stickman]

Bryce I am so jealous of your work. It really is great. The Falcon is also a great PT platform.

Looks great Bryce! Nice fab work.

Thanks John.

Thanks Neil, The falcon is a great platform. It is a light car but it cant fit any tires.

Now get out and break something!

Maybe you can teach me how to break stuff Dan.

Bryce, the Falcon is looking GREAT! Sorry if I missed it somewhere, but what did you use for fasteners?

Thanks Will,



I work part time at a hardware store. I have been there for 6 years now. Worked there when I went to college. We sell A574 alloy steel SHCS. 175Kpsi tensile strength.

Nice! I need to check into those. I have been searching for what I want to do for bolts on my suspension components and those look like they may be the ticket. I need to move back stateside and get a job at a hardware store...

HAHA, I love my second job. I usually only work on saturdays but the last two weeks I worked about 40 hours on top of my normal 50 a week job. If you need to order some check out McMaster.com or call my hardware store we can ship them to you.

You do realize that the ones on there now are wider than most new vehicles, in a car that weighs less than half. Wide is relative though.

Cool! What?

They are really nice. I just don't like the allen heads. I could have really used a good hardware store yesterday. It took me two days to find someone who had a M10-1.25 x 20 grade 10.9 bolt. I wasn't too happy about that.

Good to see your progress! it should be awesome when you get it running!

Bryce, would you be able to get me some 1/2 inch eccentric bolts for my LCA mounts?

[coolwelder62]

Bryce,Project is coming along very nicely.I like what you have done,Scott.

The hardware store I work at does not have a specific supplier for eccentric bolts. But if it just a 1/2 -20 (example) bolt then I could help out.

Very true. I guess Im about 500-600 pounds lighter than most camaros. I really wish I had a 275 up front.

Cool! What?

nothing super cool. I was looking at a durango, but it fell through. Im back to looking at 5.0 explorers and mountaineers

Why dont you like SHCS, I dont like BHCS in locations where you need high fastener torque.

Actually the M10-1.25 is a hard thread pitch to find in a 10.9 grade.

Good to see your progress! it should be awesome when you get it running!

Thanks, WHEN its running!!!! HAHA

Looking Good Bryce!

I need to come check it out sometime, I'm up in Fallbrook.

Are you going to make it to goodguys?

[454bug]

Great work Bryce! Nice color combination.

In the pictures, that Blue looks real close to the color of Ron's Mustang... Will that be your exterior paint color?

By the way, do you plan to run the side body chrome moldings on the car?

Have you done any renderings?

[go-fish]

I'm going to have to come by your store and bring my list for some fastener shopping. Did you say you were in El Cajon?
