Re: The Doc & Kim 69 build
this week and weekend I was able to get the detent cable installed, core support mocked up install the radiator bend my SS trans cooling lines enough to get them installed proper. Last was the rad hoses seeing I set the motor rearward a bit I had to be creative with the stock top rad hose next couple days ill get some gauges hooked up temporary to monitor temperature and oil pressure I also hooked the fuel line to carb and fed the fuel pump from a gas can eureka

Re: The Doc & Kim 69 build
played with the throttle cable and kick down/detent bracket I like the way it turned out all aftermarket stuff except the accelerator cable so much easier with no fenders to lean over.....with my abused and old back

Re: The Doc & Kim 69 build
Nice neat. Work Jesse, I can almost hear it running from here
IMHO I would paint the spaces between the ribs on the VC Do you use spreader bars on them
