Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA

6-30 dang, june is already gone geesh. had my 51' out all weekend and today. Ran outta chassis saver, used 1qt to coat almost whole frame. Have another on the way. I'll be top coating it as well, should be done with it next weekend. finished up the back half of boxing and put some bracing on the perches. I didn't fully weld them to the boxing plate JUST incase something ever happened and I needed to take the perches off to replace or whatever.

Reworked my crappy start stand I made 4 years ago. I cut half of it off and made a new back half so I can run a bellhousing on it. that will allow me to actually mount my headers and its much safer than having a flywheel exposed. gotta put the casters back on it still.

Got my heads torqued down today with some arp's. I gotta do a little port work on the intake and I forgot my lifters so I'll have it on the stand and hopefully all ready for a start up, can't wait crossing fingers. if not next weekend should be the following. Once its good to go and I have frame done. I'll be putting everything back on for good.

I still gotta wrap up the cab, weld, seam seal and I'm gonna go with some Hurculiner for the bottom of it and the fenders.
