Re: Forest's rebuild thread
Test fit bench seat from a 90's burb. I want head rests so this is what I will be going with. I am pleased the front 2 bolts fit fine. I will have to drill new ones for the rear bolts. Now I have to figure out what color I want it.

Re: Forest's rebuild thread
I took appart my old ac and installed part of my new one. I think I like it more with the aluminum radeator covered up. I also found what looks like a signature on one of the kick panel vent flaps. I wonder if it was the PO or a rebellions chevy employee. It looks like factoree paint over it so I am thinking rebellions employee.

Re: Forest's rebuild thread
That is good to hear. I've had a cast only once, but I still remember how good that felt to get it off and get some fresh air to the skin.

Re: Forest's rebuild thread
Some color ideas. The gray truck would have a chrome Grill.
Not to sound arrogant, selfish or mean but before anyone asks I don't have time to do a rendering of there truck right now. |

Re: Forest's rebuild thread
Looking good forest. She'll be finished in no time. I like your engine and was curious about what kind of headers your running and if you had any clearance issues. It looks like you have plenty of room.

Re: Forest's rebuild thread
I don't know about you but I am getting excited. I can almost taste the paint. Ow wait that might not be a good thing. It almost makes me want to strap a body onto the front and a drummer in the back and drive through a dust storm. Of course I would need to shave my head and spray some silver spray paint in my mouth.

Re: Forest's rebuild thread
Getting closer. I have removed everything that needs to be removed before it goes off to get the body work done except removing the front window. I also have to figure out my door jamb whire looms. Tried to mock up an ac unit that I bought of someone I knew who was selling it for $50. He told me it would fit but I doughted it and I am sorry to say that I was right.

Re: Forest's rebuild thread
I finally got around to installing my new over flow tank for my radeator. Had to make a custom bracket out of aluminum stock. I am not sure if I like how high it is I might lower it. What do you all think?
