took apart my 63 this weekend with my 6 year old son. gutted it, including the engine and trans. did some body work too. now the suspension is next.
i put a free ad in craigslist for everything i took out,besides the engine and trans. the only thing that went was the seat!!

Wow a 413, thats different. I don't even bother popping my hood at shows since everyone else has a small block chevy.

randys52 · 06-08-2009, 12:16 AM

i got to be different. everybody has a small block or big block chevy. i love to open the hood and have something different in it. i have built a 60 chevy c10 with a 427 turbo 400 4 wheel disc, a 65 big window with a loaded 350 m21. a 65 small window loaded 327 /350, 66 c10 long bed 455 buick tubo400. and now my 63 project, i have build alot of cars too, i'm just listing 60-66 chevy trucks i have build. i love to have something other than chevy engine in cars or trucks. got to be different.

hewlett2002000 · 06-08-2009, 02:33 AM
