links, bushing removal and clean up
 

People

I am in the process of replacing my rear bushings and cleanning up my links.

As a way to finance my own 1st gen project I am willing to do the labor of bushing removal and stripping of the control and watts links. I DO NOT use any chemicals in this process. I use a blast cabinet to strip off any old paint, crud and leftover bushing material. This leaves the original bare metal finish looking really nice. You can then prime and paint whatever color you like.

This is a labor intensive task and a cabinet is required. I'll do each link for 30 bucks. That's not a bad price considering the labor involved.

I can also do other parts as well. Those we can talk about. The brakes look real nice cleaned up. This saves alot of time since we all know those factory refurb brakes look like crap.

If you are interested please email me at ccauley@usascubavideos.com. I will email photos of the work I'm talking about since I don't know how to post them here. The files are too large to attach. If I make them smaller you can't see the detal.

If your going to be changing the bushings you might as well strip and paint.

It is a fine offer to make locally where someone can drop off parts, but I think most people would tend to try this themselves or pay someone locally to do it, rather than package and pay for shipping. Some will, but explore other avenues also.
For example:

Advertise locally and see what business you can dig up. You might even try talking to others doing that service to see if they can throw any small jobs your way. Have a business card or similar document to leave with them.

Good luck. Great things start from seeds.

I am well aware of how much labor is involved, I built my own blast cabinet, big enough to handle a rear end, however, this is the 1st gen section. Home of the original tight asses.

For your $30 per item offer, I can powdercoat and press in new bushings, but then I'm cheap and support the rest of the tight asses.

Good luck with your endeavor, honestly.
