We lost the front plate engine mount.....pushed the engine back another 6 "...dropped it down in the frame a bit more.....I know I said we were going to do it but now it's done and i think i have the right picture too....

Ya the blue and white truck just got new tinted glass all the rest of the way around and carpet kick panels and door panels....and my buddy has claimed it as his.....I will take some pictures it again soon and update that thread....and my long box thread....

omg...

[wutnxt]

Uhm.....chad i lost the plate on purpose....lol.....the engine is mounted way to far back to use the cross member...and the front plate was a pain in the rear cover so to speak...As for the cowl hood.....well we got the big guns working on that now...I dropped off a couple of hoods for him to start with and he came up with a couple of killer ideas that i can wait to see. I am going to hold off posting anything about the hood for awhile till we see how things pan out....but lots of other pictures soon

[chad64chevy]

wutnxt, thats cool! i din't get my truck moved landlord wasn't going for it! so i brought my front fenders over and started taking all the road tar that was built up over the years! some spots were 1/2in. thick or more, i got a patch panel and inner fender brace i'm replacing on both fenders! n-e-ways can't wait for the pictures, and keep at it you'll be done way before me, lol!!

[wutnxt]

Well here is the new tubular transmission mount....and you can see how the rest of the frame is getting the cleaned up look and boxed in.....

[wutnxt]

Here is the little modification we had to start when we moved the engine back so far....

[wutnxt]

So here is a idea where the engine sits back too.....it's final resting place so to speak

[wutnxt]

Dino....

Hey uhm...dude....it's actually a straight 6 i am putting in....I don't know how that other block ended up in those pictures....nooooooo idea

[wutnxt]

Once it was all in place.....well.....the firewall is gone now so it can me smoothed out and look cleaner.....

Sliced and diced, wow quite an undertaking. The set back looks great, very aggressive. Is that a custom trans crossmember, or CPP or something? I'll be watching this one.

[wutnxt]

it's a custom made one.....the engine mounts are basically the same way...I couldn't get a good picture of it just yet.....but when we pull the build block out i will get some better pictures of it....I will post some pictures of the tubs later....I really like'em....almost done now so i was holding out until the rear tub was all fabricated before showing them

[wutnxt]

got some paint on my long box last week as well.......about freaking time....

[wutnxt]

and the box...........

[chad64chevy]

hey that looks real good, both of them do!! i have a good idea what color i'll be painting mine when i get to that point! the wife likes the windveil blue, the light blue f**d mustang color looks real good! i told her i like the nassau corvette blue or light blue metallic! but we're going to go with the F**D color!! Sorry i know its a F**D on a CHEVY site but just trying to show you the color incase you didn't know the color!!

[wutnxt]

All you have to do is have the color mixed and tell them you want to add 2 drops of the blue base....and it's no longer the other word color....it's a custome color....just saying...lol....help me sleep at night
