Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
Very cool!!... It needs white letters to finish off the look. I love how the top of the rim is at the bottom of the fenders... Look's great.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
Got the AC installed. I tried to keep it as clean as possible. I still need to hide some of the wires. I was able to keep the compressor down low.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
Dropped off the site for a bit. Cool to come back and see all the work you've done. I like how you've done some stock-themed tie-ins. I hope you got to get out and enjoy it over the summer.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
Thank you! Yes, I have been able to enjoy it here and there. This winter I am installing a better torque converter and I think I will redo the seat.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
Wiring cleaned up. Pretty much done under the hood. I’ve decided to redo the sheet soon and thinking about a tilt column and new steering wheel. Or style.

Re: Grandpa's OG 1978
Here is the new steering column. Factory tilt column shortened 2”! Stumpys columns did all of the work. It installed perfectly. I highly recommend him. He’s on Instagram. I also added a new steering wheel while I was at it.
I am currently having the seat re upholstered too. Hope y’all like it.
