Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
When your truck is done I'd love to see it in person, please give me a holler if that's cool.

Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
I spent the day at HammerFab. Took some video and pics. We also discussed everything going on. Looking forward to the next step of new firewall and inner fender refinement. Got the column in the right spot and ordering the steering wheel. Exhaust is looking good/ Mufflers and resonators are from Stainless Brothers. Rear bumper is so clean, but making room for the license plate and still figuring out exhaust exit through the bumper.

Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
No success on my video. The file is too big. Here is a video Levi Green did and my truck is in it.

Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
Back to work: Dash getting more mods. Added another spot for the pass pwr window switch(Original A/C was in this area). It was off balance and bare. Inner fenders are getting finished. Exhaust is about done. Just have to figure out how we want to exit.

Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
Nice job on the counter sunk booster. I wish I would have though of that.

Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
Getting close. 95% of metal work is complete. Grill has ducts for intake and transmission cooler. 3D printed until all bugs worked out, then off to get machined out of aluminum. Blinker is around the duct just behind the lip.
