'67 Chevy II Project

Tha car is looking good, nice job on the fendr patch.

Yeah I can TIG and patch sheet metal pretty well by now too, but I also struggle with really getting it metal finished - and in a way its a waste of time anyway as anything I build (or anyone else really) will get skimmed enough to cover it, but I"m always amazed how the pros can make their patches look like a continuous piece of metal that was never welded. I'd like to watch their finishing technique from start to finish some time.

and just go ahead and install A/C, you're going to want it sooner or later and much easier to put it in now.

- Factory reproduction radio delete pannel
- DSE Wiper kit
- Sparco 6 pt harnesses
- Braille battery mount
- remote battery mount kit - well, I bought it all from Waytek
- C6 Z06 Brakes (used from a buddy)

I'm trying to figure out what to do on wheels, but have a few options that I'm toying with.

Welds S77's will be the ones on my car soon. I believe they'd look awesome on yours too! I'm sure you've come across them by now…

I had planned on running the Weld RT-S 71......... They apparently no longer offer the width and backspacing that I need in a "high pad height" - which is what is needed to clear the C6Z brakes.

I've been thinking about the CCW LM-5 black center..



Forgelines, unfortunately just aren't in my budget right now
