Carmen's 34 Ford was just released from the upholstery shop and arrived to have a new Flaming River Steering column installed.
As you can see, the upholstery turned out really nice and that the column has to go!
The steering wheel will be upgraded with Flaming River Woodie III . . . one of my favorite steering wheels.
The polished stainless steel column from Flaming River will look great in this car.
The old column is removed and the new column is installed.
The dash mount was also provided by Flaming River.
We noticed some very questionable crimps while we were preparing to wire the new column. These connections were all replaced.
Here is another connector that WILL cause problems later, In fact, one of the wires came off while we were taking this picture. The wires were cut, stripped and new connectors properly crimped. We know there will be no problems with this socket in the future.
This is the completed column in the 34 Ford.
We installed new LED tail lights and a third brake light in Carmens 34. There shouldn't be a problem seeing him when he is stopping now!
This is the third brake light from inside the car.
This is the Lokar adjustable hood prop. We had to make a few changes to make it work.
