1965 chevelle lt1 swap
 

this is my first time building a pro-touring car (well helped build my dads 69ss chevelle) the fame is powder coated black 1in rear sway bar 10bolt posi with 3:55's lowered 1.3in all the way around boxed controle arms. front: upper tubuler a arms with 1-1/8 sway bar with all poly bushings. interior: all stock with autometer gagues will put in diff front seats later on. b&m shifter.motor/trans. its a lt1 with a 700r4. the lt1 is all stock inside. i had the intake powder coated blue and i have a 52mm holley t/b for it. it has all msd electrical and dyno max headers and will have a stage 2 fast chip.www.fastchip.com will be reburing the comp and i might do the wireing myself for send it to www.lt1350.com. im not running big rims becuase i can afford them so im just puting 15in torq thurst on. the tranny is form tci.fuel system: iam in the process of puting a sump on my tank i am running the MSD High Pressure Electric Fuel Pump and a Aeromotive A1000-6 Injected Bypass Regulator. for the fuel rails i will be welding in -6 an fitting to them so i can run a firewall mounted fuel pressure regulator and it also looks alot cleaner than the stock way. :thumbsup: for the brakes i have wilwood superlights for the front and drumbs for the rear.

BODY WORK
iam starting to do the body work on the car i took the back window out and thought i was going to find rust but i got lucky no rust around the back window but the retard that had the car befor me cut the package tray out so he could put 4 speakers back there so iam going to have to make somthing and weld it in. iam sanding the car down to its old primer with 80 then going over it with 220 to smooth it out (car only has one kind of paint on it not 5 diff layers got lucky again) iam going to spray the car with feather fill primer(iam hoping to take it to the booth and primer it the middle of feb) iam going to be painting the car long beach blue the color of my dads 69 ss well thats if so far if u have any pointer or tips they are always wlcomed
