Because once a project car always a project car. I’ve been replacing my bearings since they’re pretty well shot on the left side, today was wholly dedicated to pounding the stub axle into the inner bearing. Awkward angle + tight fit = slow moving (twss).

Hopefully I can get the rest of the bearing stuff done, CV joint repacks, and rear brake cylinder + hose replacements done by the end of this week because I’d really like to have the old girl back on the road this weekend. It’s been pretty hard watching everyone else with their cool cars out and mine’s stuck in the garage.

Someone had a beautiful Ghia at a car show I was at a few weeks ago. I was wondering how yours was doing lately.

Well, roughly as pictured :P Bearing issue cropped up pretty much right after I got it out of storage so it sat for a bit before I was able to get a move on fixing it.
