Very nice! Glad to see so much progress. Good luck with it!

All I can say is...

:king:

This car is pure awesome.

Is that an AN hose connecting the radiator to the thermostat?

I was thinking of doing this with my autorad setup and was curious if they offer it as an option for the inlet/outlet on the radiator.

Yes Autorad does this, just ordered mine that way

Thanks sd67.

I will just echo every body else :king:

I'm with Al ^^^^^^^^:trophy-1302:

and to think...the f$#@$@# front end isn't even on yet! HAAAAAA HAAAAAA

Thanks guys! I really appreciate it!
Here is the site I bought the AN water neck fitting for the water pump and Thermostat housing AN fitting. Billy Utley suggested the company to me.

Thanks for the link Casey!

Beast mode for sure!
Looking good.

Overachiever! :smiley_smack:


:thumbsup:

No problem
Thanks guys!

All of the exterior bodywork is now done and everything is ready for sealer, base and clear. We are hoping to have the exterior painted by the end of next week.

I like the 4 cut outs vs standard 2 for the Aerocatch latches for added stability.

Which vents are you using?

Gonna be a great car. Goes without saying. But I said it.

Yeah, that's what I figured too... The Black Dog Speed Shop cars in Pirelli WC had 4 on their 5th Gens and I really liked the way it looked. Plus I really didn't want to use the stock latch system and like you said stability. I'm using the Anvil Vents. Thanks dude.

Just read through the entire build thread.....WOW!!! What a bitchin car! I'm really liking the styling and choices you have made....very well thought out!

And you can't beat the Father/Son builds! Good Times!! :thumbsup:

Have you picked a color yet?

awesome work Casey!!!!

Love the hood too.

Just awesome Casey! Can't wait to see it in color :thumbsup:

Thanks guys!

Exterior is painted now, and things are starting to come together with the assembly process. Hoping to drive it for the first time next weekend depending on how things go.

Now the fun part really starts!

That's looks great Casey,hope your driving soon:trophy-1302: :trophy-1302:

Outstanding. Love the Spek gauge packaging.

Great choice! I was just thinking battle ship grey would look good on a build like yours.

Dave

congrats on getting this far. Simply looks great and different with that shade of gray (did you look at 50?lol)

Soo close....great build...

Me too!

That thing is pure awesomeness. Love the color , care to share the info on it.

Thanks, It's a custom tint

Thanks guys, it's great to have it finally coming together



Currently the car is at an interior shop here in Minnesota having a stock style headliner installed, along with custom carpet, custom rear package tray and custom kick panels. There are still quite a few things to sort out and finish but the car is finally able to move under it's own power. The side glass and the door panels will still need to be installed after the interior is finished along with installing the taillights and a few other things. The car will also be going on the chassis Dyno at TPIS in a couple weeks. Here are some photos from the last few weeks.

Casey, spend the money and have a true 4 in i.d. cold air built. That intake tube starved my ls3.

Thank you for the heads up, I am definitely planning on having a one piece intake tube made. The one that's on there now was just for mockup and to get the car running.

Oh yeah --- Charlie might want to trade in HellFire on this one!! LOL


Nice job! Wow!

Nice phat fenders...plus the whole overall look. :cool:

Very Nice!!

Nailed it!

Best looking 69 I've seen in quite a while. I never would've picked that color combo. :thumbsup:

I love this car! I think its exactly how GM would have built a 69 Z/28 if the technology was available then. Well done!

You have built one hell of a car! I cannot wait to see it tearing up the Minnesota roads.

Casey....Don't take this wrong, but when I rolled into catch up on your thread and saw the pictures all I could think was "OMG that is F-ing DIRTY"! Not a term that has ever come to mind on any other car I have ever seen. It's a good thing!

Home run brother! :captain:
