'64 Maiden Voyage

After a year of weekends, rebuilt 283, new seals and clutches for the transmission as well as tires, lowered springs and shocks...She went around the block!

Also to the car wash to wash off bird poop. Lot's of thumbs up and the car wash owner gave me free time an the machine. Bonus

Still lots of work left:
Bench seat
Install American Shifter
New wiring harness

Just nice to have it moving under it's own power...love the 283!!

Re: '64 Maiden Voyage

Thanks for all the comments guys. (and gals).
Camaro stub front end and the master cylinder (78 Camaro) is mounted at a bad angle. Steering and MC are on the list to as well.

It's kind of like taking a picture of yourself in your underwear. You don't realize how jacked up stuff looks until you see it in a picture.
