Re: 65 Build
Hey Everyone,
It's been quite a while since I've posted any updates so thought I'd update the latest. I've gotten an original radiator support panel and tailgate at the Carlisle swap meet and have sandblasted them. They are in fantastic condition versus my old ones. Also blasted the front fenders. Still working on some other parts. I've gotten the wiring harness for the Vortec 5.3 and have actually started the engine for the first time. It runs really well and also looks pretty good. Also got the aluminum radiator and fan system installed. This pretty much completes the chassis, so now comes the challenging part, the BODY WORK. Can do it but I'm really slow at it. I've attached some pictures of some recent updates. Will update when things change.
