Re: My 57 Pro Street

Just a little up-date.
Got the rear end all together. I used SS straps to hold the brake lines.
Hope to have it in the frame by the end of the week.
Here are a few pics.

Thanks.
As far as the energy goes I'm surprised at how much I can get done when all the fab work is done and I just have to bolt things on.

Thanks.
The coil overs came from TCI when I got the 4 link set up years ago.
I ordered it all through Currie when I had them narrow my rear.
They're rated at 250lbs.

Hey Kim, super nice work on the lines. Couple questions, what adapters and fittings did you use to connect the vette filter to the hard lines?...Jim

I used these. You can get them in -6AN and -8AN. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rus-644123
I also picked up one of these to go in the outlet side of the filter.

Re: My 57 Pro Street

Beautiful work there Kim, I can appreciate how hard it is to get them large lines so neat! I still haven't mastered that side of things yet.
