Got the gas tank ready to install today
|
You are getting there Ray. Checking out your garage, I wish I had a little bit of your space.
|
I didnt even go to my shop today ,too tired.
|
Still waiting for parts to arrive, like a engine wiring harness. Hope it gets here tomorrow.
|
I cant wait to see your car finished ,it is a Beauty.
|
I'm going to check out my car at my friends house today. I talked to him yesterday and he said he got a lot more done. Gotta try and post pics today of how much he got done on Saturday.
|
I opened my garage door...does that count ?
|
Still waiting, I even payed for 3 day delivery, and nothing yet.
|
Spent most of the day cleaning and preping parts. No matter how much I get done, my pile seems to stay the same size.
|
I changed the plug wires on the old 74 chevy truck but did not make it out to see the Chevelle.
|
I am so mad, I have had the car back for over a week and haven't had anytime to take her out. I need to do some major cleaning, but at this point I just want to drive it, I don't care if it is dirty. Is that bad ??
|
40 lashes for you.
|
I moved ours out of the shop today after work so I could work on my lawn mower and then one of the boys needed several things repaired on his car too. Its still dirty from Chevellabration but if we get a chance maybe sunday we can cruise her somewhere .
|
Got all my parts today, so time to get everything put on tomorrow. Should be able to bring the car home on friday to finish putting the inner fender wells in and the front bumper back on.
|
Good for you Ray ,its been a long process .Cant wait for you to take her for its first drive after all this time.
|
I'm gonna try to get that damn door jamb windlace in.

New wiring harness to install Done
Inner fender wells (Right one installed) Front bumper No Battery cables No Clutch adjusted (Linkage is biding up and not working smoothly) Reverse lockout linkage to hook up Done Driveline installed Done Install the original caliphers-Bleed all brakes Done Gas tank to install Done Fire up the motor (not yet) Been working through some issues today for installing the inner fender wells. Looks like my grille support bracket is bent and will not allow my lower valance to mount up correctly so I can put the front bumper on. What a pain to put the dust shields on the inner fender wells, If anyone has a trick let me know. http://i777.photobucket.com/albums/y...nchList009.jpg http://i777.photobucket.com/albums/y...nchList006.jpg http://i777.photobucket.com/albums/y...nchList008.jpg Low rider look, bleeding brakes http://i777.photobucket.com/albums/y...nchList004.jpg Wish I had use of my friends shop a few more days |

But I have been more focused on the transmission that seems to have burnt out 2nd gear....:mad: 1st gear was still getting it done today though http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/o...e/84671e6e.jpg Guess it is time for a 4L80E now... |
Looks great Ray, I guess you are going kind of "resto mod" with chrome stuff under the hood?
The weather sucks here, we are in the middle of a tropical storm. No sign of it letting up until Wednesday at the earliest. |
I think Rays is all stock but he will let us know for sure.
|
It doesn't look very resto moded to me but it looks great to me! I just don't really care for the chrome radiator cover.
|
[QUOTE=carpoor;36340]Looks great Ray, I guess you are going kind of "resto mod" with chrome stuff under the hood?
The Radiator Top Panel and the Fender Tie Brace should be black, the previous owner chromed them. I have some original ones I need to paint them black yet, but for now the chrome ones will stay on so I can drive it this summer. The valve covers are correct for the car. |
Looking good Ray. Love watching the progress.
|
Went to my first cruise this year today.
