Well thank you, in a couple months I'll be home and working on it again.

raylube · 08-16-2020, 11:42 AM

You should quit buying all those shinny parts for it because you know what they say......chrome dont get you home...

**The Rocknrod** · 08-16-2020, 12:35 PM

People that don't know how to put things together say that.

But seriously, You can choose to drive a Cadillac or drive a pinto. That's whats great about America, it's your choice. This right here - Is my choice.

raylube · 08-16-2020, 03:25 PM

Its going to be awesome when it's done. You have chosen well.

**The Rocknrod** · 09-04-2020, 01:24 PM

I got both my Vent windows in from the truck shop in Orange, CA, and no this is not a pic of both of them:

**pdxhall** · 09-04-2020, 02:59 PM

The vent windows look great. I'll be interested to see if they fit as good as they look.

Oh trust me........... I dont know yet either.

raylube · 09-04-2020, 05:56 PM

Wow those look awesome!!!! Did they have good reviews? I wonder about the quality of the rubber as everything I have that is repopped with rubber cracks apart in less than a year even when not in the sun. Keep us posted on the fit and finish. Can't wait until its done.

**The Rocknrod** · 09-05-2020, 10:13 AM

Got my Hayden 689 trans cooler in:

**The Rocknrod** · 09-05-2020, 10:20 AM

Also the new motor mounts, the trans mount is on the way:

**Joe Pass** · 09-05-2020, 12:33 PM

Looks great.....FYI on the engine mounts, I'm running the same ones with the matching trans mount and I was experiencing more than normal engine/drivetrain vibrations. Researching this I found its not all that uncommon, so I pulled the trans mount out and it was a vast improvement....debating doing the engine mounts next....This is turning out to be an impressive build....can't wait to see it driving. Have a safe Holiday
Joe

**The Rocknrod** · 09-05-2020, 01:51 PM

Thanks Joe, your the best.

On the trans cooler I'm going to run hard tubing instead of rubber hose. I'm using swagelok where I can and flare nuts & ferrules at the cooler.

**The Rocknrod** · 11-01-2020, 05:21 PM

Been getting parts and such, one of them is my new door handles and locks.

**Joe Pass** · 11-02-2020, 09:14 AM

Nice...

**The Rocknrod** · 11-07-2020, 04:02 PM

Got a set of Motofeet and casters in.

**The Rocknrod** · 11-07-2020, 04:26 PM

This is the stance I'm considering, static drop:

**Joe Pass** · 11-07-2020, 05:27 PM

You will love it, have one of the original ones, works fantastic, can’t remember how many engines I have done with it. Once I put in a iron block 555” big block chevy with a tko600 on it, clutch and all in one chunk...in a 70 vette

**The Rocknrod** · 12-05-2020, 09:46 PM

Got my Mirror arm polished and the Oil Pan etc.

**The Rocknrod** · 01-07-2021, 06:16 AM
