And a front view.
I brought my tires to the school shop the other day and got them mounted, so I'll put up a pick of those tomorrow. |
Re: Nik's 62 build
Good job man, it'll look good in there. :chevy:
|
Re: Nik's 62 build
Nice job on the gauge panel. That really fits the look of the dash.

Re: Nik's 62 build
The seatbelt tailgate latches are awesome, there is a guy here locally that did it on a 50's model....COOL IDEA!

Re: Nik's 62 build
That gauge pod is going to look great, nice work! :metal:

Here are some pics of the tires mounted on the rims, I put the hubcap on just to get an idea of how it will look. I'm extremely happy about how good these look especially with the caps, the tires are not overly aggressive but they're still rough enough to get the job done :chevy: |

Re: Nik's 62 build
Very nice work on the gauge pod :thumbs:

Re: Nik's 62 build
I am digging the gouge pod as well. The tires and wheels look great. Cool.

Re: Nik's 62 build
Gauge pod and tires look good Nik!

Today was quite the busy day! I don't have any pictures to share at the moment but I got up early and spent some time sanding the other inner fender and got it prepared for paint and spayed the first coat of black on it and pulled out the other inner fender and put the second coat on it. I then spent the rest of the day replacing the timing belt on the family minivan, it all went smoothly. Tomorrow I'm hoping to get the the gauge pod mounted under the dash. |

Temperatures dropped back down today and it started snowing unfortunately, but I still got some work done. I drilled a hole and installed a neat looking Chrome toggle switch into the gauge pod. Not entirely sure what I'll use it for yet, but I'm sure I'll find some use for it.

Mocked it up on the dash for the first time and started to make some brackets to mount it, that's as far as I got today. So far I'm really liking the way it flows with the humps in the dash :chevy:

Re: Nik's 62 build
Looks good man, we got some snow to. Was hoping to get some truck time in, but I ended up having to do some work on the GMC instead and then spent the rest of the weekend with my girl. haha

Re: Nik's 62 build
*****in...
That really does flow well with the dash Nik, well done buddy. |

I got the one inner fender polished out and installed on the truck, the drivers side one still needs a second coat.

Since I switched to power brakes I had to make some space on the firewall, I did this by removing the windshield washer reservoir. So I needed to relocate it somewhere else in the engine bay. Here is what the stock bracket that mounts to the firewall looks like.

So I bent the tabs a bit different so I could mount it on the passengers side inner fender.

This is how it'll mount

Re: Nik's 62 build
Makin progress! :metal:
|
Re: Nik's 62 build
The other stock location for the washer reservoir is on the drivers side of the radiator support above the horn relay.....just sayin'
|
Re: Nik's 62 build
Good problem solving.
Inner fender looks good, in fact, you should be very proud of your build. |
