Not really exciting, just meant the air filter intake to the throttle body. Sorry if I lead anyone on there.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Looks good. Couple questions for you. Where did you get your filler panels and the cover on your core support? On your rear drop of an inch where does that put you? Thanks.

5/8 total drop. The filler panels were a 3 piece set off this board can't remember guys name right now. I did modify all 3 pieces to fit lower to the radiator as 1 piece.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
I love the finish you chose for the engine bay. Is it a satin or a matte?

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Still plugging away at the small details and wiring. Getting very close to completion...fingers crossed no major issues arise.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
I really wish I had picture updates for you guys but wiring doesn't make good pictures. So I guess the next set of pictures will be after it is running on its own power. So be on the lookout!

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Finally some news to report. Added some more grounds and pressurized and filled the coolant. Added oil, power steering fluid and some 91 octane and it is ALIVE!!!
What a milestone.

Did have a few hiccups, leaky fuel fitting, gauges stay powered up even with key off (sure that's my goof). Also had a bad rythum noice coming around the trans tunnel, turned out my wiper motor was on, haha.

Now that I know motor wiring is good it's time to move on to the Advanced Key System push start and alarm.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Congratulations man! The home stretch is on brother. You will have to beat them away at the gas station if you are in a rush. You've got a real head turner for sure. Very tastefully executed. On a side note, I am on the hunt for a steering wheel, who makes that one in your truck?

Much appreciated. I have given my all to make sure I have gone the extra mile with every detail.

I now have all the systems in place and working except the floor lighting and the remote start.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Big thanks to Vic1947 for his trouble shooting help with the advanced key system. He's a model forum member!

I will post up some pictures this weekend as the interior goes together more. Just a few more wires to sort out.
