A couple simple things.
4th gen wiper motor. Early wiper switch can be used. Add in proper sized resistors to the wires to give just a speed choice or two.

Brake line flare nuts were bead blasted then used Gun Bluing to finish. Gun bluing works great to blacken various parts plus freshen up factory black oxide coated nuts/bolts. Brake lines are powder coated.

Black anodized washer with stainless flat head screws. Washers available from hillcofasteners.com. Made for button head bolts, I countersunk these.

Camaro cruise control unit. Remote mount and cable in. Interesting the wiring circuit does NOT go through the computer. Speed pickup off trans needs to be the electrical pulse type though.

In previous pic, the battery cover is simply velcro'd on.

Just read through this whole thread. GREAT JOB!!:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Covered the floor with Be-Quiet Ultimate sound deadener. www.b-quiet.com/ultimate.html

Installed some of the sound deadner on the firewall back when it was 60° in the garage. Finished the floor last week when it was 95°, boy was that pliable and stick down easy in the heat! And to everything else if you weren't careful.

Then a wide strip of 1/8"aluminum faced bubble wrap type heat sheild. Bubble wrap heat shield also glued to the roof.

On top of that installed:
5692T61 Acoustical Polyurethane Foam Absorber, Adhesive Back, Skinned, 1/2" Thick, 54"w from McMaster Carr.
This will absorb sound waves bouncing around and insulate for heat.
Installed between truck and back seat also.
Have not driven the car with all this installed. Will give an update after I do.

Check out this site to help understand sound deadening.

Seams like I'm going a bit overboard on insulating but I want the A/C to to be nice and cool.
Several years ago I installed a small A/C unit reccomended for "coupes and small sedans". Did not keep up at all. Heat was coming in faster than the A/C could take it out. So installed a Vintage Air Gen II 4 vent evaporator. That helped out a lot but lack of insulation still left cooling less than desired. The foor only had the original rubber mat. Insulation and sealing of the car is AS IMPORTANT or more than the A/C unit. Plus install the largest unit that is feasible.

Man I just love this build your attention to detail is outstanding.

My only problem is your color combo it's making me want to change my mind on my choice for my project. I am so torn and it all your fault.

Once again - Awesome project and I am looking forward to more updates.

Looking good Jim!

Wish I was a far as you are!
Can't wait to see it in person!

Mark

Wow how did I miss this up until now! Beautiful job, beautiful car. I love the color combo and how this is coming together. Keep up the great work!

Bob

Thanks for the nice comments everyone!!

syborg tt: Talk about detail, your truck is full of it! Do you have another project in the works?

ChevyII MD: Good to hear from you. Will have to check out the progress on your Chevy II.

deuce1963: I take it that's your ChevyII in the profile pic. Sits down nice! Takes a lot of cutting to get these cars that low.


Here's the paint codes if anyone is interested:

Body is BMW Imola Red II, code 405. Used Glasurit
The red shows different in every picture, but basically a deep blood red.

Engine compartment and interior: Dark Argent Metallic is 1997-2011 GM code WA8945. covered with Ultra Flat Clear - BASF DC5775.

Need a picture of something. Here's a couple non-related to this. We stopped at the "American Pickers" place earlier this year in LeClaire, IA on the Mississippi river. Have family near there. Just a small place, don't go too far out of your way to see. Other than a different camera angle that's all there is.
