jumping back in with my 54' bel air (pics)

Angie, i hate to dissapoint but i have my mind set on green!

52 csb, yep after i cut the wheel wells for the tires im gonna start working on a cover. i have a friend been coming over on weekends and building an english wheel. im hoping to use this if its succesful.

heres an update on my car:
-ive installed the mustang II from no limit. im very pleased with the product so far but they shipped the wrong rack and forgot to include shock brackets. so im currently at a stand still waiting on them. (i hate waiting)i spoke to them today and their shipping out the correct parts. i was actually hoping to roll this thing out by monday but its clear thats not going to happen now. oh and thanks goes to outlaw52 for help and basically giving me the "dont think, just do it" attitude i needed to put this thing on haha. its my first one!






the little firestone that comes with the kit



The MASSIVE RE7 slam bag.....i dunno too big?? hehe




im going to have to modify the top mount if i use these...what size bag is anyone else using? im thinking i shouldve got the 6" (RE6) but i was going by their ratings for wieght..



-picked up a motor couple days ago from a local high school for a really good price. they rebuild'em, check'em, run'em, and warranty them so i feel i got a pretty good deal. its a 350 bored over 30, sterling pistons, corvette cam and vortec heads. i'll be keeping it black and chrome or polishing everything else.



welp, thats all for now, gonna go work on the 4-link...

 

That eng. should be FINE. Dont forget your proportion valve on the swap.What size discs are those, is yur bolt pattern same .. NICE 52 csb

 

Lookin' good homie!...Let me know if you need help on the 4-link....mine was my first one too, so.......Don't think and just do it! hahaha...

 

where did you get the 4 link? and i have a 4 door with the back doors welded shut and chopped... looks ok, but I will be putting the longer doors on it this summer... your build looks good by the way...

 

He got it from Gambino Customs notchs and the four link.

 

its a universal 4-link, but yes its bought from and the one they use at Gambino Kustoms.

csb-their 11" rotors and they had optional 5 x 4.5 (which im using) and 5 x 4.25"

-sky, that mustve been a tough choice weldin up the doors n all! i have a greater purpose for mine and insisted my project have all 4 gotta thread or link? i'd like to see that!
and thanks for the comment on the build!

 

I could not afford a 2 door when i was looking for one, but i found the 4 door i have now cheap, here are a few pics
