Re: 57 NAPCO rebuild

Got home this morning and got back into it - have lifted the body back up 4" and it has solved a heap of issues. I don't think it looks too terrible with regard to looking too high off the chassis , its still setting over it enough so it looks like it should. Radiator support and grille now clear the chassis - should just be a matter of making some brackets and bolting it on. Waiting on the engineer to come by and let me know what he thinks - everything over here needs to be engineer approved before the DMV will licence it - a real pain in the arse......and not a cheap exercise.

Took the front and rear windshields out, was gonna reuse the front rubber as its pristine then though damn the expense lets go crazy and buy a new one

The rubbers both front and rear were as hard as a bulls forehead - took some cutting to get them off !!!
