Re: Dunce's 59 Fleetside build

Bed done
Mar-k latches installed
Roll pan and exhaust tips installed
final fit the hood. hinges mounted all the way down in the slots and shimmed on the front hood to hinge bolt to get the back down
one piece glass and door panels ect installed
alignment done - no issues with the frame/sub frame install
made it to its first car show : )
currently working out the bugs in the LS1 tune. big cam causing MAP sensor issues, replaced the MAF and had a fuel pressure issue (too high). Hoping to get to a dyno tuner here soon to finish sorting it out so I can drive the wheels off this thing!
Decided to add the 58 hood emblem. it needed something.
Thinking about a custom front bumper of some sort. perhaps something thin.. sort of stretched and straightened 69 camaro front bumper flavor
Raised the front about 1 inch, had a bit too much rake. now its about 1 to 1.5 inches front to back. Can't really go much lower in the rear. Currently have about 1.75-2 inches to the bump stops and any further than that and the center of the rear end may be poking its head up through the bedwood ; ).
