Wow. Now THAT is a build!
Our timelines are familiar, but the builds are miles apart. Yours looks badass!

Back to where I wanted to be a couple weeks ago.
My brother was out today.
Engine and trans finally in. Hopefully for the last time.
I'll start adding accessories to it when I get the time.

i build my own computers; that is easy.
but i agree with chevette when it comes to automatic transmissions.
i pull them and replace them :D

nice work.

Re: My 57 Pro Street

Wow Kim, that looks NICE!

The best part about putting the engine in for the last time is that it starts freeing up floor space and all of the boxes with parts in them slowly start to disappear.

Are you matching the exterior paint to the color on the intake and valve covers?

My plan is to get them as close as possible. Chevy had a light metallic blue in the mid 60s that I like and may use.

Just a couple of pics with it sitting on the ground. I'm hoping it will sit low enough when I get the body on it.

Re: My 57 Pro Street

oh it'll be plenty low, you can tell from where the body mounts sit in relation to the height of your frame rails.
Damn fine looking build
