Nice job fixing the door handle mechanism. I've had a couple of them with bad springs through the years. Nice to just get outside and mess around sometimes. Later Buddy 👍
Hey BW 👋, thanks for the video. I think that's the worst I remember you having things thrown around. But that was interesting on the spring replacement.
Yeah to bolts in back and two bolts at cowl. I had to roll the front sub frame on my 1970 to repair the mounting holes on my mounting holes in the sub frame at the cowl mounts and I replaced the rubber mounts to body.
I am thinking I will have to repair or replace sub frame, but I want to get both floors in so I can put rear back in to turn the car around to pull engine
I'm not into winning trophies either but hey it's cool to get one when others appreciate your cars. Best trophy I get is when someone tells you that your car is the baddest one there. I'd use either one of those parts you fixed any day of the week. 👍
Lots of people loving the build and told me at the show. The cool thing about that win, it was all guest voting and they choose the 55 over 87 other great cars.
That was a cool little repair Brian, in this throw away society we live in, it’s easy enough to pick a part out of a catalog, throw it on the old credit card but for a little bit of money for some springs and a little time in the garage, you got an original one all fixed up and I’m sure it will be just fine! Great job buddy!
55 looking real good man and congratulations on the award. Load it up and take it down to Bowling Green Ky next month to the Tri-Five Nationals. You wont regret it! Its an Awesome show!
Hey BW, looks like you fixed it, I’ve messed with a few boat door latches , you used to Be able to get new ones, but some of these doors have been around 7 decades, so now you have to make due, great video, be looking forward to some Nova videos 😀😀
Fitzees fabrication did a floor replacement on a nova video back a ways. Not exactly what you may be doing but a few things you might look at. My shop is cluttered up like yours no biggie. Enjoyed the video

Appreciate the tip, I'll check it out
I say the lighter spring is going to be easier on the rod. Less wear.
