1954 3100 USAF restomod

Thought I'd add some updates and pics of late now that its been almost 2 years since the start. Since my firewall is such a mess i decided to cover it with gadgets. Working on Stainless cover for fusebox wiring --ugh!

Since last post on thread below have made some progress plusses and minus's .

Major Plusses:

Tranny is rebuilt with painless OD and lockup added to 700r4

All new brakes (drum and disc) Vacuum pump added for brakes

Wiper bottle, pumpand nozzles installed

Full alarm added

"Flux capacitor" panel wired (relays)
Boat horn under DS fender

Army Army Corps emblems added

Backup horn and led lights added

New LED vacuum gauge

Some wiring cleaned up (cover is works for rest)

new soffseal weatherstrip installed (doors now aligned and close easily)

heater vents installed

Minuses:

700r4 is leaking from front and rear seals under warranty and will go back soon.

Hood will NEVER line up properly. Body shop FU'd and didn't fit parts properly before assembly and paint

Tank needs pulled so rest of bed bolts can be added.
