just got the belts on and my remote oil filter system hooked up.
still need to -
install tranny cooler
get driveshafts in
instal new gas tank
get new rad
get gauges set up
then going to send to a performance shop to install the wiring harness
putting on new quarter panels since its already starting to rust and ive put on new doors and front fenders so i might as well.
thats pretty much my game plan so far

 

Nice nice. Glad you got the alt and ps mounted alright. Hopefully this weekend I can post a few new pics. If things go well I might even be close to a sound/video clip

 

lookin colourful, nice job.

 

ya it was a battle i had to modify the ps bracket so that it would move in an inch to fit on the other pulley
took a while but i got them lined up great
sounds good jason get em up here as soon as u can man!

 

i got my driveshafts in last weekend checked out my rear dif and its good
i have to replace both rear leaf springs cause they are rotten and falling apart lol
my tranny cooler arrived with everything i need for it so im going to install it this weekend
oh and i took my old gas tank out and once the springs are done and rear shocks are done then im going to install the new tank
any news jason?

 

I've just finished replacing the rear brakes. Waiting on some por 15 to come in so I can put a final coat over the rear end. Had to make up some new brake lines for the rear as well. Once the rear is all painted I will put on the new lines and bleed the system. Once the brakes are in good working order I will attempt to fire it up. I have my tranny cooler installed and most other things hooked up. Hopefully I can get some recent pics up.

 

The anticipation of both you guys builds, I can't wait to see some video of both of yours rollin down the street!!!!

 

Post up some updated pics.

 

This weekend I hope to be able to do that.

 

Nothing cool to report, just the basics. Finally have all the brake lines bent/flared/mounted, rear brakes all back together, half azzed bleed job, new parking brake cables, tranny lines installed and cooler. Need to add some more fluids up front and some more wiring to clean up.

Trans cooler mounted.


Before & After


Had I planned for this project to have gone as far as it has, I would have pulled the body and powder coated it as well as the rear end. That's one of those things I wish I had just gone ahead and done. Oh well, maybe on the next one.
