Another OLD BLUE Build Thread - 71 Chevy

[OldBlue71Chevy]

I'm hoping to get it out of the garage by Sunday afternoon. My list is dwindling, I will get a picture of it later.

Lunchtime update from today

My secret to making mostly accurate drill holes is to put a dab of white lithium grease (the kind in the tub) on the ends of the bolts then line up the plate and press it against the bolts. This leaves a nice grease mark to center punch, then drill it out.


Told you there would be speed holes

Free online cookie for whoever can guess what manufacturer that oval template came from.


Not too bad for freehand with the plasma cutter.


Waiting for the paint to dry, gotta go get a tire patched on the wife's car in the meantime.


More updates tonight.
