I have to agree with this.. while mine is not black it is dark charcole gray.. seeing the body color through the grill just doesn't look right IMO. Nearly as bad as seeing a radiator companies logo through the grill (painted in BIG letters)

Yea the radiator is going to be painted black in front also....

Beautiful, Just Beautiful!
 

Hey Paul, great looking car, man! One question, did you have to drill out the rivets on your original front clip to get the radiator support off? On my '66 the radiator support is riveted to the subframe in certain areas. Also, did you smooth over the rad support? mine has more indentations for stuff. Did you make a custom support shelf?(The piece that goes on top of the radiator support)? Sorry, that was more than one question wasn't it! :lol:

I am a little late to the table on this project. However, I like what I now see!

Very impressive........... :thumbsup:

R.P.

Yes your right you have to drill out the rivets on the radiator support at the bottom.....Yes thats the origanal radiator support but it have be modifyed alot it...Probuly would have be easier to build a new one ...Or get one from martz....Thanks for the complements....Should have more pics this week ....Any more ?'s or if i missed any Just ask

Thanks-Paul :thumbsup:

Thanks, Roger....The car is coming together just how i wanted it to.I dont know if you read my other post but my interior guy layed down his motor cycle a couple weeks ago....and he got backed up ...So it dosent look like the car will be done for columbus good-guys ....what the deadline was that we wanted to meet. But the car is looking great and i dont want to just get a quicky inteiror done just to get it to 1 show....

Thanks again

Paul

Waiting is the part of the game. It allows you to take a step back, appreciate what you have accomplished and yet confirm things that still need to be completed on the project. It's hard to get everything done completely right the first time.

R.P.

Yea...We were just feeling rushed to get it done for 1 show....That car is going to be a really nice ride and it will look like crap when you start doing thing half A$$ed just to get it done!

-Paul

Hey, that sure is a funny looking green. Man has that car came a long way since you bought it from us. You have done a wicked job on the car. I'm glad to see that it ended up with someone that has taken their time and done it right. :thumbsup:

Looking good. So you did do the mini-tub. What size rims are you going with in the rear now? Also, are those 17x7s in the front? Keep the pics coming, but dont rush the work for us.

Thanks,
Yep...Went with the mini tub. The dished wheel just looks toooo good on these cars.
still running the 17x7s in the front
the back has 17x10s now.

Are you Mini-tubing your car?
I could send you some before We mini-tubbed it and after if you would like?

Looks good. I'm not going to be tubbing my 64 out, i was just wondering if you had, i remember you talking about getting bigger rims for the back, but you needed to mini-tub. Saw the bigger rims in back and was wondering. thanks for the reply.

Very nice color..

Now take some "under construction" pics and send them to me.. I need to thin out all the Camaros I get sent.. lol

Steven

Yup No problem.

The car is Pretty much done but a couple things. Would you still want me
to send you some pics?

Paul, the suspense is killing me. Please post some more pics, I want to see the final product! :D
