Your working fast Boat,looking good

Re: 63 rebuild
I really like your use of a engine hoist and wood frame to remove the cab. Great idea which I will steal when it comes time for my project.

Looks real nice. Wouldn't it be great if it always stayed that clean? Any details on the engine?

Re: 63 rebuild
Pretty engine you got there. One thing you ought to do with the headers is use a torch and heat treat the paint and use alot coats of the paint so it'll last a long time. Just my .02

The truck looks really good man!
