The header fit looks great! But the corner left by the curved notch is a bit distracting.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

that firewall is looking nice! and those headers... wow the coating finishes those off perfectly!

Nice progress Kim!!!

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Looks great, nice job....Jim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Putting the pipe in helps that a little. When I get to that part I can always change it if it looks real bad.

Thanks. The company that did the coating didn't have a wide range of colors and I thought the silver would look the best.

Thanks.
Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Man that recess in the firewall is definetly top notch and is very unique. Keep up the good work.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Beautiful work all the way around!

Who did the coating, Jet hot? Not to be nosy, but what do they charge to coat headers?

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Top job kim, jesus you know what ya doing, a+++, she'll be a bueaty when it's done.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Thanks

I got the headers from a local guy who works out of his house. Not sure who he used for coating. Total cost for headers and coating was $475.00 with the coating being around $200.00 of it.
They are Sanderson headers but not the coating they use from their site.

Thanks.
Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Outfreakenstanding job Kim! Looks killer!

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Love the firewall. The coating came out great on the headers.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Absolutely gorgeous firewall.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Finally got the cowl vent welded in.
Also had a visit from the Fedex guy.
20 gallon foam filled aluminum tank with a sending unit and 2" sump.
Taking the truck Tuesday to get it weighed for the DMV and then I will be able to blow it all apart to finish the frame.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Looks good!! I love when packages show up it's like Christmas even when you ordered it.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Awesome fab work,:devil: keep up the good work!

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Incredible metal work Kim, so Kustom Smooth...great fuel tank, it looks just like the one I got, works great but I had to notch the stock cross members on my '65 a ton. Probably not an issue for you from the looks of that fire wall. Great progress. Mike

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Isn't that the truth.

Thanks.

This tank fits in the area behind my rear with no problems.
Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Should have looked back, ya it looks like an easy fit.:canada: not much stock on this build.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

kim that looks real good, something about a smooth firewall that says ''custom''
all that frame work is hidden from the casual observer, they will see this :D
go ahead and weld up the clip holes for the hood seal rubber
the clips they send with the rubber are cheap and just break anyway
use a good weather strip adhesive to glue it down.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Nice progress! Did you get it running? If so how did the wire harness for the engine work out.

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

Thanks Ogre.
That's a good tip on the clip holes. I think I will do that.
Kim

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

I saw your A/C brackets in an earlier post. What brand did you buy and do you have a picture of them installed? I'm looking for a solution for a 5.3 L engine.

Thanks. Your project is looking great!

Re: My 57 Pro Street
 

I used these guys for the bracket. I don't have it installed yet but it seems to be a nice part.

That tank looks exactly like the one I have in my truck. I also went foamed filled as well. Like to see some install pics when you get there.

Keep up the great work
