Round 2
Here I started cleaning up the underneath of the car. Sprayed the floor with a bed Liner, repainted the rear end after narrowing it for the wider wheels. This is my rendition of a DES design 4 link. Sorry DSE, we all have to work within budgets! Upgraded to their sway bar though. Wilwood rear brakes work quite nicely. The cast aluminum pan stopped that pesky 80/90 drip.
Just a respray of the dash. The dash was pulled out of a 59 Impala from a tree line in north east Kansas. The top half is original metal narrowed in the middle. The lower half was formed over a welding tank and I used exhaust tubing for the heating vents. I believe I used Billet specialties vents and Classic Industries gauges. This dash has been in the car since 2012 and the gauges were just offered the month before I ordered them. I really dodged a bullet on that one as I hadn't looked for gauge options before I installed the dash. I kind of wished that I would have left the glove box door as it is a nightmare to access the right side of the dash for wiring and A/C box purposes. Looks good though.
Threw in a couple pics of the new rear wheels mocked up and looking sexy!
