    Here is the intake for my SBC.. A few years ago i was kicking around my buddys old barn and triped over this complete offy sitting in the mud. The thermostat had a date stamp of 1963. (i thaught that was kinda cool) so I cleaned it up and rebuilt it ..

    I'm digging the overbuilt look of the front suspension. The frame is pretty slick too.

    I spent the past few weeks cleaning up the frame and suspension getting it ready for coating....the next step is to load it up and take it to Applied Coating in Lodi...

    you thinking about getting some pin stripping done while its torn down that far?
    if only you knew someone who did that locally.....?

    looks good. what do you still need to do body work-wise?
