Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Got my harness in and installed!!! A buddy came over and helped me fire the beast off.
It sounded sweet with the short pipes.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
Thanks 1963c10. I just got home from work and went straight to the shop. Got the fender and door mocked up to see how the rocker fit. Looks pretty good. At lest with my eye.

Re: Newbie with a 65 Chevy
That was a good decision getting the second downer truck, makes for much better progress and quality of the build. You don't mention what you are doing to deal with the rust you are covering up with repair panels. I'm driving and building on my '64, makes for slow progress.

You don't mention what you are doing to deal with the rust you are covering up with repair panels. I'm driving and building on my '64, makes for slow progress. I am not covering any rust up. Everywhere that I put in a patch panel I cut the old rust out first then made a panel to fit the cutout and welded it in. And yes it makes it a lot easier if you have spare parts.
