Re: 68 build...south of DFW

I sold the 17 inch rims, now im looking for some 20s. I was going to wait for those rally wheels, but I dont think they will be available until after the summer. Instead, Im looking at some Foose Legends in 20x8.5 and 20x10s.



I got the engine pulled, painted black and now its back in the chassis.

I was going to do the same but couldn't get the 20X10 in the backspacing I was looking for, wound up going with the Coy's so I could get the deep lip. Those Foose wheels are nice though....and my cost was about 300 less than the Coy's!

Re: 68 build...south of DFW

I got the gmc headlight buckets removed from the GMC core support and got it cleaned up and painted. It has one small repair spot on the lower passanger side but it isnt really noticible.

I got the intake put back together and got the headers put on.

Re: 68 build...south of DFW

I bolted up the core support and ran into my first problem with the LT1. I need a radiator that is set up with the top radiator hose being on the passanger side. That sucks because the radiator I have is new. I know I was going to have to run electric fans but I think I am going to end up going with an aftermarket radiator specifically for the LT1.

My mom always had the best advice. It was just a tad late. After a fall that involved blood, she'd say....."Careful!"
