It's been a while since I posted an update, and there really hasn't been much
visible progress since the "stance" pics a few weeks ago. It still looks about the same as this.
I've got 10 days until the wedding, and a lot of work left to do.
Cooling system; using caprice radiator, waiting for some parts, shouldn't take too much effort
Exhaust; If it's running for the wedding, it may have open-headers
Wiring; a couple relays for the electric fans, and a bunch of various little stuff, but most of it is done.
Interior; will install the steering column tonight, the rest is in and done. Won't have a working Speedo, but who needs that?
Body; putting on the fenders, hood, bumpers, grille, etc... gotta finish a few things under the hood first.
Power Steering; need to figure out how to run the hoses out of the way of the tie-rod, and figure out how/where to mount the reservoir.
Driveshaft; gotta shorten the existing one... no money for a new aluminum one.
Alignment; Probably going to leave that to a professional... might set the toe and go with it just for the wedding day though.
I've got a ton of little stuff to do yet, but Jenna finished school this week, so she can help in the shop now when I need an extra pair of hands.
Everyone else has already started on "Plan B" which is to drive the Model T instead of the Chevelle, which will be cool too, but I really wanted to do a burnout.
