Termites and Bowties- Early Chevy Group

I think the 34/35 windows are the same, the frame crossmember is the only difference I wanna say. Now idk if any of that is interchangeable with 33

 

I had a potential buyer and I took measurements of a lot of the pieces. My door is too narrow for these wood pieces. I believe the three window coupe has a longer (wider) door. that’s another reason why I think this wood is for a three window coupe.

 

That makes sense that the doors are different, I feel like I’ve heard the sedan doors and 3 window doors may be interchangeable… but I’ve never measured

 

....and don't forget there was a standard and master series. standard stuff is smaller. a whole other set of wood.

 

Have not checked in a while here, settling into our new home here in Lake Havasu City. As anyone can see, my garage is considerably much bigger and enjoyable to work in, INCLUDING A/C! I did manage to get another set of front tires from the fact that they were too tall (an inch less than my 29" tall Radir slicks). @snoop74, your interior is looking great... Jay, keep up the great work that you continue to show us! And welcome to our new members with their new Chevy projects!

 

Nice Mike, I hadn’t been here in few weeks as well. New garage looks good

 

Steel A pillars are DONE!
The DS test fit went well. I think the door will line up once I adjust the bottom of the A pillar back towards the bottom of the B pillar. Last pic is to show why I need to pull them together.

 

I can’t do my usual APRIL FOOLS prank this year because I’ll be working and weatherman predicts rain. I drive around town in my 1963 Chevy C10 with a gas pump nozzle hanging out. The “hose” part is just an old bicycle inner tube stuffed with plastic grocery bags so it’s not flat.
Here’s a video when I caught someone a few years ago. VIDEO LINK

 

I've done that but it wasn't a joke!

 

Had to hack up new valve covers to actually fit.. was painful.

 

Have to clearance the flange to clear the carb bases?

 

I would have thought the same thing, because of the four two's linkage?

 

I’m happy to have found a local machinist who can mill and then sleeve the end of these T5 transmission main shafts. I have at least 5 main shafts that need to be done. Then I can rebuild these T5s and get some of the clutter out of my shop.

 

Yes sir. Then I had to shave down the front because the driver side hit my risers. Ofc these are also a little taller that the eddlebrock so they hit the firewall as well.. so I had to beat on the freshly painted firewall as well.. took like 4 hours to fit some valve covers

 

The edlebrock have a thinner flange around the covers vs the moons. So had to notch it in several places.. it was nerve wracking after I downtown that much money lol

 

You mean these things don’t just bolt together lol. Buddy just put finned covers on his W block and had to move the master cylinder to clear them!

 

with this intake it doesn't which is crazy, my edlebrocks were fine haha

 

Did you have the steering wheel refinished? If so where?
