Rene I think that 63 grille chromed it the ticket!! After seeing that
Orange 63 at the Stockton meet and greet with the chrome grill, I think that look is hard to beat.

I will go back to my shop later this evening when it cools down

and take pics to post of the "Gray Goose" with a KevsClassics tilt column and new stance.

awesome

thanks from myself and all my fellow picture Ho's

**KevsClassics** · 06-17-2012, 11:31 PM

First makeover from KevsClassics new shop.
Tried something different on this one. I used lower sleeve from original column this way it looks stock coming out of dash. Also used original harness connectors.

**KevsClassics** · 06-17-2012, 11:36 PM

And new stance. I do got to say Rene jinxed me he said all nut & bolts are rust free. Not the case 2 broke and one was rusted to the trailing arm.
But I do got to say I put hub caps on with the palm of my hand no prob.

VA72C10 · 06-17-2012, 11:39 PM

shawno72 · 06-18-2012, 12:13 AM

Looks good Rene thought those fenders were going in the dirt. I say go lower or none the less bags. Collumn looks nice kevin. Still hope i get to go to brothers show and see this truck there. New shop looks a little smaller or is it the same??

Yes smaller. I work 40 hours a week for a automotive shop. This shop is a hobby shop for my Blazer, Impala, sons 68, Marks 68 and room for a weekend project like Rene's 66.

Dinos63 · 06-18-2012, 11:06 AM
