Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
you will need to swap the filler neck from your old tank to the new one. the straight one will run right into the body mount.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
Nope, I hopefully will have some on Friday. Nothing much else to do but put the tranny in and paint the bottom of the tub. Having a Tub Party at my house Friday afternoon before the Goodguys show in Nashville. Should have plenty of help to put the tub on

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
Just wondering if you are going to put some sort of wing window on the door? That little step up that you left looks funny. OR something I cant put my finger on it, it just dont look right to me somehow.
Other than that it looks great! |

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
Okay guys, well she's gone to the body shop. I had an option to take it down to the NADC and have them do it all. I know I had told most of you that my friend Tommy that is the head body instructor down there told me that he could paint it but they couldn't do anything else. Well, he ended up calling me and telling me that he could take it down there and do the whole thing which would save me a TON of money, but I decided to go a different route thanks to Mandi. I asked her about it to get her opinion and she said that she thought I wanted the blazer to be more then the silver truck. Then she called me silver truck a 30 footer Happy, which I've called numerous times. So since she was right I decided to go with my buddy Jason Bullock at Bullock's Body Works. He is very good. Here are a few links to some of his work. Most of the stuff he's known for is mini-truckin but he's built several other hot rods. There was a really nice copper 32 Ford with creme wheels at Goodguys he built also. Not a fan of that first link Crazy but he said that's what the owner wanted. He builds his own frames and they're pretty sweet. Craig saw some of his work at last years Goodguys. He's a real nice guy who's is working on a 49 five window but he's thinking about putting a 54 front end on it. Trying to get him on the board, I'll get him sooner or later.

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
Okay guys, just stopped by there and it looks awesome. He's a little pissed at the previous guy like I am. Said they didn't even weld the pass side rocker in just used filler.
He told me that he was going to make a true roadster out of it and take 3 inches off of the windshield. I told him I trust him and his style so take any liberties that you want with it. He told me he took 3 inches and it didn't look good, so he took 2 inches more for a total of 5. He finished shaving all of the holes on the firewall other then the oil pressure line and the fuse box. I think I'm going to tell him to shave the oil cooler line also. Here are some pics. I think it looks great. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Project Topless 365/24/7
I'm going to Line-X the firewall, at least that's my plan. They can get to it all. Will probably have to take out the distributor, but everything else should be okay.
