Thanks guys....

So I made a little head way...

Touched up the cowl panels with some premixed paint from O Reilly. Matches pretty good....got the rest of the sheet metal installed, starting to look like a car again...

And last but not least, the hood closes and has about an inch of clearance. Crappy picture, but it's there. So if anybody asks, yes it will fit...

Tom, the car is killer. Add some wings, and it will lift with no problem, meaning this car should FLY! Great job on the engine install!

Awesome job!! This car will be a handful to drive (traction)!! I have an LSA that I'm planning to put in my 59 Belair can wait to get started....

Small update....this took most of the day to accomplish, particularly trying to find a suitable location to mount the PWM, drill a hole, miss the exhaust, solder connections....well...you get the idea...

PWM mounted and wired up...
