ctrow, it was nice meeting you and your dad too..

little progress to report, been working on the hood shocks...fabbed up a lower mount that uses the 2 outboard bolts for the PB hood hinges, then welded a extension piece on the hood hinge arm... it wokred out well, now since i have the driver side made (more like the geomety figured out..) the pass side should go by alot quicker...

I like the idea of running the fuses out of the side cowl, wiring is going to look very clean.

I was thinking about upgrading my wiper system to a newer model vehicle that is sealed, so you no longer need that wiper cowl drainage system. I was going to start hitting some junkyards and matching windshield sizes and see what I could come up with. Full size BMWs and Mercedes have a very nice structural wiper system that would probably require some minor fabrication...that is if the windshield sizes were similar.

got the hood hinges made and installed, was going to 'hide' them in the wiper cowl area and use some bellcranks and rods to connect everything, but brother talked me into keeping it simple...and this way, it also isnt a maintance nightmare.....also brother and i got the bed installed (the body lines dont line up, due to the bed wood not being installed) but you get the idea of how it"ll look with 22s on there....also threw the grille on there as well...

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
 
ok, im getting back on hulk, blue-ray is bought wrapped up....so finished up some loose ends on the front sheetmetal...the sheetmetal was just cleckod in place, so i brought the holes up to size, and wleded nuts on where needed....also made a cosmetic peice that connects the inner fenders and hides the front most crossmember, and it also makes the engine 'pop' more, due to it hugging the front of the engine and accesories...i made this piece removable from the top, due to maintance (IE.. radiator hose replacement) here is the process of all that, and some pics of everything installed...
