    Well it has been a while since I started a new post on this car so I figured I better get caught up. Got it out of the frame table for final fit together assembly before prime, etc. As of tonight

    Brake lines are plumped to cowl.
    gas line is plumbed to the Fuel pump
    Body is sitting on Chassis

    Big thanks to Don Ross for letting me use his lathe to make some threaded bungs and some tapered sleeves for the Split wishbones to hit. He is a good dude for sure.

    Plan are to move forward installing some rear facing pedals, finish brake lines, make clearance for rearend in floorboards, mount radiator, grill shell, hood, front floor at tranny, Dirty2 is finishing the final touches on the 327, make a hydraulic salve mount, start wiring ,etc. Shooting for mid January to debut it. But definalty be at the Roundup in April. Heres some pics

    Funny - no one's asked about that front axle yet, or the 'filled' top...

    Thanks guys. This is the nicest unrestored body I have ever seen, Still has remnants of the interior, still got all mouldings, kick panels, sun visors etc. Floorboard still has black original paint on it. The roof was fillled along time ago probably by somoene that did aircraft work. Small rivets all the way around nice and tight and clean

    I was very excited to get to help in this build for Crazydaddy, It is gonna be a neat car.

    Once the stance & seating position are set, AND if I have any money left, we'll consider chopping it. Believe me, I love them chopped 2 1/2 to 3 inches, but I am 6'3" and want to drive it. A lot.
