It's looking great Chris, great work. Wish I had your skills... I need to get back up that way soon.

thanx man! its gettin there slowly but surely.....

i cheated on the radiator part, got my buddy to fire up the tig and we pulled the switch-a-roo on the inlet/ outlets

Yep thats cheating buuuuuuuuuuut it worked and looks good so its ok LOL.


Rick

ha, i know i know... it was gunna be a busy mess if i tried it the other way and my buddy can tig like no other!

btw i was up your way a few weeks ago for the stret rod nats, good time/ show... 4th street is a blast! Spinelli's pizza is the shit at 3 in the morning!!!!

I wish I had that much room between my motor and radiator lol...I have like half an inch ha.

I went to the nats on Thursday ( gotta check the swap meet on opening day ) and then took SWMBO on saturday to actually look at the cars . She tried to talk me into buying a plasma cutter but I told her although the price was great the country of origin wasnt .

lil update
got the back wall seam sealed up, gunna prime it and the dash one more time and should be off to paint




steering box cleaned and painted


quick pic of the gauges... im pretty impressed with them so far!!!


been pluckin away at the accessories, belts, and radiator her lately... been slow work! lower radiator hose has been fun to say the least
there's not a ton of options out there for 460s it seems so its been junk yardin and fab'in most the way.
still have to figure out the a/c but im gettin close

Lookin good everything you check off gets it that much closer to hittin the road .


Rick

Lookin sweet! I've got some seam sealing to do soon as well!

Holy cow thats lookin badass!!!

Looking good bro keep it up haven't been on for awhile and man you've made great progress

Thank guys! I'm ready to get this thing on the road!

Great, waiting on pics..

A friend is nearly ready to drive his stock old slick, but he would be dreaming it was yours !

been plucking away at it some lately. slowly but surely
blocked the guts again and primed it one last time... ready for paint








bedliner'd the firewall sat morning...





buddy of mine strip'd my plasma just cause

Looking real good sir, I'm jealous you get to work on yours lol.

can you still get a ground through the bedliner or have some of those parts been moved?

also, did the regular cab mounts go away? i noticed the recessed hole where typical floor pans mount to the rubber mount are gone.
