I'll get some new pics this weekend, getting pretty close to running, though. Here's a few from a couple weeks, well, I guess a month ago now. I forgot I never updated my post here.



Trying to keep everything clean under the dash, all the wiring disconnects for dash removal


Lokar style throttle cable on our vintage Holley


Fuel line is actually done now, valve covers and air cleaner are flat black and on as well

They'll actually just be the gloss black finish of the aluminum, same material the dash is made from. With the exhaust painted I don't know that it really needs them though.

Got the drivers side belts put in tonight and dad made some more progress on the wiring, I'll get some pics uploaded Sunday night.

As promised, new pics and a video. Looonnng weekend. We worked till around 11 Friday night, 7 Saturday night, and 8 tonight, and finally got to fire it. Still have to wire the alternator, fan, and RacePak, but we're getting really close to laying down some rubber.

Didn't have my good camera with me so I've only got a crappy cell phone vid, it's not quite as loud as it makes it seem. I was pretty surprised at how quiet (relatively) it is inside the car.

Audio level is through the roof on here, so adjust your speakers before you hit play



Getting everything buttoned up under the hood


Power steering reservoir and hoses - return line is a temporary, it will run down along the frame like the others


Cables, cables, cables


Got all the switches on the dash labeled


And now it's time to catch up on some sleep, I believe..
