Re: My 1965 build thread
Thanks Tony
I struck a pretty good deal I think on this aluminum radiator that a friend of mine took out of his 72 Chevelle. Now I have to figure out how to mount it. Hey Shannon you got an old 67-72 core support and top radiator hold downs still?

Re: My 1965 build thread
I have my original one that you can scrap if needed. I also have the one that came off the '72 that you/we got from Chris, but I'll probably keep that one for myself.

Re: My 1965 build thread
Thanks man, I'll keep you in mind if my plan fails. Do those bungee cords come with a roll of duct tape?

Re: My 1965 build thread
Alan, I had an idea for my gas tank supports. And since it seems you want to put a speaker back there I thought I would share with you. I plan on making a speaker box in roughly the same shape as the gas tank. I figured it was long enough to put maybe a 8" or 10" speaker in the middle and mount the amp on the box to the right of the straps and a capacitor on the left. I also planned on using the gas tank straps to hold it in place. I want to use the old velvet and resin trick to smooth it out nice so it can be painted to match the interior. Haven't done it yet, but that is the plan anyways.
