some progress
 
I don’t think I will ever finish this thing.

Finally built an electric fan housing, bought a new radiator and put it all together. Then spent the rest of the weekend uploading my project pics to my new photobucket account.

Thanks Shifty
Yes thats a Modine 4 row replacment.
It took me a while to figure out the way I wanted it mounted. I wanted something that would be one unit and attached to the rad. itself.
The studs on top are to connect a filler panel to rad. support. It will have some sort of graffic or ingraving.

Hopefully I will have the front cap on before winter (if the hurricanes stay away). The fenders only need prime and paint, but I don’t want to put them on till the doors are done and all the brake stuff is completed. Those are my next steps.

At least it’s in the garage and out of the weather. I really admire the guys that get some much done on their daily drivers, I don’t know how they make the time. I guess I did the same when I was young.
