Update!

Most of the filler work is roughed out and ready to refine. All of the bodylines are done and ready to be sharpened up. The front and has been assembled and gapped as well as the doors being set. I'll be replacing the package tray with a speaker tray we built so that'll be cut before it heads into the booth. After doing two '66s, we found that the rear window stainless must be fitted to sit correctly in the window jamb. The aftermarket stuff will stick out at the rear corners so an oem one is key. I ordered the paint today too! Was a huge day just getting that done. Pics:






Here's a shot of the 502 block headed to the machne shop. It'll come back 509 inches, large hyd roller, head work, 10.5:1 etc. The block on the left is a 400 we are doing for a Nova.



Color in 2-3 weeks!
