Ultimate headers look nice. I thought about going with them to get better ground clearance and go to a oval exhaust

Steve - I remember seeing your car done and going...man did we just build the same car lol...

Crazy enough I didn’t see your build until I had all my parts and color finalized. Guess great minds think alike??

Wow that paint looks slick! The color looks great. Very Nice!

You will be VERY happy when it all comes together, the comments I received on the whole combination was phenomenal

Wow! Awesome job! I went through the whole build & was impressed with the attention to detail.. I’m building a 64 Chevy 2 & I’m OCD with the build... hoping it comes out as good as your build.. thanks for the detailed pics.. a lot of good ideas!

So its kinda crazy that its been almost three years since an update. But over that time I worked out of town for two years, built and moved into a new house (including a new shop). Good news is I am back and it and hoping to finish up the car by end of the summer. I will give you guys a few quick updates and hopefully get back to updating this more often...

First things first...the new shop. Its a 30x30 attached garage with 13' ceilings. Fully foamed walls and ceiling. Wired for speakers and TV. Much better than my old setup :G-Dub:

Had to get the rearend powdercoated due to a poor job from the original supplier. But now I can finish brake lines and install it for good.

-20AN Upper Radiator hose done. Waiting on one more fitting and I can finish the lower hose.

Intake tube mocked up. Still need to trim the 45, measure and order filter but after that, this part will be done

Have a lot of parts out to powdercoat right now and once those come back in I will be able to do final assembly. Car is also going to exhaust shop next week to have a full 3" stainless exhaust installed. Once that is done...I can finally crank the car.

I love seeing it this close for you, the engine bay looks amazing. The cabinets are sweet! Heck it's all SWEET! I wish I had that much room for something that big. I love it, enjoy the hell out of it.
