Really clean build. I love the color like a lot of others have stated. I'm jealous of your build photos with the car sitting outside in February. Looks like a great neighborhood too. Good luck on finishing things up.

Yeah, and I saw the pictures of your car their website. I knew the picture looked familiar. 😄. Glad to hear more good feedback about them. Now I am really excited about receiving them.

Thanks! Haha, yeah we get the early spring, but you probably would not be jealous of our peak summer of 100+ degrees and 100% humidity. Lol

Yeah, thanks. We have had some good times in our corner in the neighborhood. Some good neighbors and had some great cookouts and 4th of July and New Years block parties.

Thanks for the comments on my build. A mere drop in the bucket to your 69 wow!!
What pedal kit did you get and who/what brand is it? Loving the kick panels from the Shop as well!!

They are Lokar. Just got picked them up from Jegs a couple years ago. The are just the little overlay pieces that bolt on the factory original bases. Thanks!

Quick update. Drilled the holes in the new floorpan to mount my shifter back in and finish installing the front half of the carpet.

Once I got all that lined up, I went ahead and put the original console back in it for now. I still have to trim the sides of the carpet, but I will wait until the kick panels come in.


Throttle cable back in and adjusted



and this one is just me playing around with ideas. I have the old A/C control panel in there just to fill the hole until I figure something else out, but I cut a little piece of the faux carbon fiber and mounted the LED's for left turn, right turn, brights and brake and mounted it where the fan switch used to go. lol.

Been awhile since an update. We had a boatload of rain, and then a tropical storm. Still working on a lot of detail things in the garage. Some more wiring and fabbing some brackets. I'll post pics of my Blaster SS coil bracket tomorrow, but I got it mounted on the back of the intake. I think I was inspired by a couple of builds here with the same concept. I think it was Vega$69. So thanks for the idea. Looks like it will work. I do have a few pics for this update. First, mocking up the SW Headers. Fit pretty well. I think they will work.

I went ahead and cleaned up the original wiper motor and mounted it. Those Detroit Speed wiper motors look great, but I just don't see spending $500 on a something I will probably never turn on, when I can spend it elsewhere.



Started replacing all the blue and red anodized fittings and hoses with black and stainless


Going with 20AN Stainless braided for the radiator hose and black AN fittings.


Ran the fuel line with 8AN (1/2") stainless braided hose.




Transmission back in



...and since TS Bill is gone, why not let her get a little sun.










Headliner came in today and I have a lot of black braided wire sleeving coming in to tidy up all the wiring.
More to come. Need to dump some more photos.
