Default Another update

This is definitely my favorit part of the car! Here it is after the inner fenders are installed and the outers reattched.

Default Hood Update

The standard SS hood would not fit so I had to get a cowl hood. I still had to cut the interior front center brace to clear the the throttle body. I then stripped off about 8 coats of paint and primer. The rattle can primer is to hold it over until the paint guy is ready.

Default Hide Aways Installed

I opted for the DSE electric conversion for the hide away lights. They go in super easy and per the instructions.

Default Wheels!

I chose the Centerline Lazers for wheels. I went with 18X8 on the front and 18x9.5 on the rear. Still need brakes installed but I will wait until after paint so I can put the stock 14s back on. I dropped the front 2 inches with Hotchkiss springs. I am still tweaking the stance on the rear springs.

Default Finally to the body repair!

I has been a while since I posted updates. I finally got the project to the body shop. The stripped and media blasted the car. They place a quick primer on it to protect it from rusting.
