a little more progress... front windshield in, should have backglass and sides in soon. should have the cowl and grille painted soon. a little touch up here and there and should be in b'ness. we pushed it out and got a couple of pics in what little sunlight was peeking through the clouds.

looks great out in the sun. Has a tough look to it with the stance and good sidewall on the tires.

Thanks Jonathan. my son wants to go lower, we will see. I have some extra lower front springs, but would need to get or fab some rear blocks if we go that route...

Re: Project Slo-Go 67
 
If you go the lowering block route, check CPP's or POL's ebay stores...can find them for around $50 shipped for a returned new in box set with U-bolts. They are a simple change too...

By the time I get to the shop during the week it's been around 35*. I need a different heater because I can get it up to about 50-55 in a couple hours then it's time to quit for the night. The 2 roll up doors are like screen doors. :waah:
