‘63 Chevy II Pro-Touring Build

[bkswede]

Made a quick run to Eau Claire today to check in on the Nova. Engine and transmission should go in on Monday. Kurt ordered a clutch bleeder from Tick Performance and the fitting was for the wrong slave cylinder, so he had to reorder. New one came in today, so driveline should go in Monday.



They’re also deep into wiring, which is going to be a big job. I’ve got a new American Autowire wiring harness that they’re installing, but they’re adding to that the Holley Dominator ECU harness, the Holley drive by wire harness, the Holley digital dash harness, various input/outputs for the ECU and dash (oil temperature, left/right turn signals, high beam, fuel level sensor, second wideband oxygen sensor, pulse width modulation fan control, etc), Vaporworx PWM fuel module control, Digital Guard Dawg keyless entry, PWM control for the dual Spal fans, etc. It’s a maze of wires - glad that Kurt and his team are as conscientious as they are!




They’ve got the rear windows in, too. Side windows and vent windows will go in next week - just waiting for some vertical rigid channel for the front windows, which should be in sometime next week. Door handles were painted black, as was trim around the windows. Windows have a smoked gray tint - pretty subtle, but, man, does it look great in person with the gray body color and the black trim.





Hope to have some pictures of the motor and transmission in early next week, along with front fenders, core support and grill!
