We finished the engine revisions and got it back in. It sounds totally different that it did but it does run better than before. Due to weather and other factors, we have not been able to drive it much since getting it back together.
A pic of what the engine looks like now. We had to loose the 'vintage Chevrolet script' valve covers due to the roller rockers but it still looks good.
We are now doing the daunting task of body work (not my favorite thing...). Working on the fenders and front end at this time. Rear fenders are next then to the doors.
Does anyone have an idea if there is a template for the shape if the top portion of the lower grille??? The top of this one is ~1" behind the lower part of the upper grille. We are working on matching them up...
Currently having the windshield frame blues... The one we have appears to be too rusted to salvage and getting it apart in the center is not working out too well either...
We will be tearing it down in the next month or so to get everything sand blasted. Then it will be time for some primer and filler...
