yep, its a GTO

BTW, a little known fact is that cali cars have rust, not a lot compared to your area but the real deal is in Arizona.

I used a 8x8 inch piece of a patch panel to repair the floor in my '63 short bed. The only cab rust there was at all was on the drivers floor corner.

That's the last I knew of. He did the frame Z & found a bubble top for the car but it wasn't on yet. I spoke w/him briefly @ the Columbus GG's show a couple of years ago. Incredibly.... He was driving the 55 & it still looked good. The cool 'Fly' wheels were long gone & replaced w/some Welds but it was otherwise all there (approx 20yrs on the clock!).

I was talking to Steve Stanford at the Grand National Roadster Show in January, and he told me that He and Scott are bouncing around ideas for a 66-67 Nova project. They are talking about using a 65-69 Corvair roof and making a bubble top Nova. Now, that would be badass......

As a matter of fact, Steve kind of let the cat out of the bag and showed the rendering of it in Hot Rod magazine a few months ago.

A little progress this week, exhaust and wheels. Billet Artilleries finally in from The Wheelsmith, mounted up some tall tires to help get that nice comfy ride.

exoticmetalworx · 05-30-2011, 09:54 PM

i almost got those wheels nice!

72BlckButy · 05-30-2011, 10:01 PM

Lookin' good Boris!

boonedogs72 · 06-01-2011, 11:32 PM

what size are the wheels?

chevyrestoguy · 06-02-2011, 09:46 AM

Man, that is looking great.
I have been racking my brain for the last few months trying to figure out how I was going to run my exhaust because my suspension very similar to yours, with the exception of the wishbone direction. I want a full exhaust, and the mufflers have to be placed back as far as possible to keep the cab quiet. I also don't like the look of exposed exhaust tips. I like the way you did yours.

I was figuring with the placement of my bags and the shape of the upper wishbone, I was going to have to put in a short exhaust. Now I see that it is possible to run the pipes out the back. I am running a 3" exhaust and will be running v-band clamps, so that will take up a little more room.

Thanks for the inspiration! So, are you going to make Columbus?

I'm hoping to get it to Columbus, ac might not be plumbed, and there might be some loose ends but I'm gonna thrash to get it done......

boonedogs72 · 06-09-2011, 12:52 PM

love the wheels cant wait to see how it turns out.

creep · 06-09-2011, 01:41 PM

Hey Boris, a little off topic here but I was looking at radiators on ebay and I was checking the feedback for Engineered Cooling Products (ECP) and noticed your name in there. Did you get a rad from them and if so, what did you think of it?

Dinos63 · 06-09-2011, 05:02 PM

Sic love the wheels too

looks pretty good for the price, won't know much about its efficiency until I get it completely together though.

creep · 06-13-2011, 03:17 PM

I actually just got mine today. Hope to get it in this weekend. It's got to be better than the 48 year old stock radiator.

**way2lo2** · 06-13-2011, 10:02 PM

Its a good thing one of the guys that works here is a retired carpenter. I don't have the patience for woodworking.

Question about Lizard skin, Where is the best place to get Lizard Skin, can I get it in a Kit, and Does it work better or just as good as say Dynamat, rattletrap, or roadkill, which are the roll on products for dampening and heat control?

By the way the build is looking very good, I am about to do the big window conversion myself in my 64 Fleetside Longbed.

I bought mine from summit as a kit with both the ceramic heat barrier and sound insulation. I think if your not concerned about a smooth finish on the floors it will work better then dynamat from everything that I've seen and heard, I am using dynamat in certain places were I didn't want to spray the Lizard skin.

Hey Dirty, I told you it was getting painted. My friend Jerome who has the same last name as my first name with a different spelling stopped by at the shop this afternoon. jeromeborris.com is his website. He's a wackjob but he's my buddy and he is talented as anyone I've seen.
