Thats some of the finest craftsmanship I have seen in a long time. That vette will be awesome when its done... Looks like the project is coming alone very quickly... Thanks for the posts and picks.....:thumbsup:

Blessings,

Hurt your back a few times and complain about not being able to take out the trash and you'll get one quick. j/k.

Seriously, if you have a 2 post rack you will just have to make the table mobile. Or make ramps for it.

If you think that my jig would be something you're interested in let me know. It can be stored flat or hung off the wall as all the parts nest once you pull the bolts. I have the plans, materials list and some basic cost info. Or I could post it in the shop equipment section and you could get it from there. You're call. Jim

Thanks for the picture Jim. I'll probably end up doing my own design based on my shop layout and what ever lift I end up getting.

Nice 356 by the way. Are you planning a 3.8 and 6-speed for it? :thumbsup:

Any updates?

This car didn't end up in Minnesota did it? I passed a truck hauling a black split window coupe that didn't look completely finished with polished late model aluminum vette suspension and polished 18" A/R TTII's and some large red calipers...couldn't tell what they were.

You don't see too many Pro-Touring '63's!

That's a killer looking build!

I don't think he has posted on here since the summer. must be busy.

Either way, awesome build. Subscribed.

I like what you've done so far. Although LT5 is all aluminum, it still weighs almost the same as old big block, still pretty exotic choice, there was one 65 at Carlisle this year with LT5 and ZF6.

I still preffer the stock body lines over the opened up wheel wells. Here's how a friend of mine solved the problem of how to fit big wheels in a mid year:
