Installed the windshield and rear glass this weekend. Hands are sore, but they’re in. Now that the glass is in it's starting to look like a truck! Working on the doors next.

Re: My 56 build
remember that the windshield doesn't come too far inside the rubber so it actually kinda sits against a ledge. otherwise the windshield would be pushed into the cab, worse case scenario. the rubber is kinda smaller than the glass if you think about it that way.

Re: My 56 build
i actually did the front first and had less issues than the back. that lock-strip thing makes it a good bit crazier

Doors are installed. Now to wait for the seals to settle. First set took about 2 years. I bought another set for the final assembly. (A wire wheel ate the first set.) :lol: First time using weatherstrip adhesive. Went pretty well. Made quite the mess. Even managed to get some in my hair! Was with the effort :metal:

Re: My 56 build
looks great Jason. I remember doing door seals on my 67 camaro. OMG what a mess. I tried so hard to be neat but got it on my gloves and apparently touched even surface possible with it.

More progress. Most of the front end is assembled. Cold air intake and electrical box cover are done. Lights are all wired. Grill is in. Hood is almost ready for buffing. Next is to finish my interior wiring and install windows in the doors.

Getting close to my initial shake down ride. Most of the exterior is complete. Just the hood, tailgate, and bedwood left. I now understand why the car shows say the last 10% of the build takes 90% of the time. I’m making good progress.

Finished most of the electrical and got it running again. Finally pulled it out to see how it looks in the sun. Hopefully going to get the hood on this weekend. Here’s a few pictures.
