PS: If you buy another set of wheels you don't want, you can send them to me....

Yeah I can't wait to be done, after seeing some sheet metal on it, I just want to put it together now and drive it

I think I'm done buying wheels for a while, that is until I get it on the road

I have a pretty large carb spacer that I have to remove and I also have a air cleaner spacer that allows the Edelbrock air cleaner to fit on the Holley carb. I think that is around 1", going to change it to a 1/2". Hopefully that gives me enough room, if not I'll just have to change the air cleaner.

Nope, still at my brothers. After I get the hood on and the hinge plates welded then I will be ready to move it and start the tedious bodywork phase

won't be done by spring, I still have a lot of parts left to get and a lot of work to do. We will see, would love to be driving it this summer.

Rusbuilt · 11-18-2013, 09:30 AM

Nice work Keith!

Thanks Eric, should be pretty nice when it's finally done.

Bennett68C10 · 11-24-2013, 09:20 PM

Got the hood semi on today

took most of the day to install my Porterbuilt hood hinges, I then set the hood on and then decided that before I get ahead of myself and weld the hinge plates to the bottom of the hood, I have to make sure all my panels are gapped correctly. Next weekend I'm going to try to get my gaps spot on and then weld the hinge plates on.
