Amazing what people will swear up and down about when it comes down to money.

LSX 454 will be a nice motor for this project!

It does suck, but smoking deals on used LS7s from eBay (or the forums) are huge red flags. You know, if a deal sounds too good to be tue...

I as well paid good $$$ for a motor that required a complete rebuild (which I was going to do anyway). eBay deal-io.

I hope you guys work it out.

Eugene, beautiful car and project, looking forward to see the build coming together. Are you guys going to use the Dynacorn 69 TA hood? I saw a few in person and the fitment was great, the only issues were the plastic scoop inserts.

Good luck on the build and subscribed.

We got a goodmark hood, I've had good luck with their stuff so far, we will see on this one. I plan on making custom inserts but molding them to the hood for a seamless look per the rendering

We're blasting the car today. I'll post some more pictures later today. Fingers are crossed that there's no big surprises.

That things gonna move with the lsx...

Hey all. I got some more updates today. The blasting went very well. However after talking to the customer we're going to end up putting new steel on the fenders, quarters, and roof.

Funny story is that I found a brand new fuel door that was stuck behind the quarter panel, right behind the B pillar. Must have been dropped in there when being assembled in the GM factory back in 1967. Poor owners probably had a rattle they could never locate, and the loose fuel door behind the quarter was the culprit.
