    Update....Pics soon been to lazy though

    Have the front bumper on...installed glove box...radio and front speaker are in and yes that 40 am/fm radio actually works...installed the carpeting...shifter boot...sail panels...rear arm rests...seat belts...front and rear seats...and had the cluster all in...Starting working on the sport mirrors....PROBLEMS I ran into...Cluster the GEN light stays on...cluster is going to be pulled since it seems the rally gauge is junk:( ... Drilled a nice big hole in my door for the sports mirrors and its wrong...OUCH I believe the gasket will cover it up but my stupidty for rushing:ball: Next will be fixing the cluster and mirror before moving on.

    Well things are moving and the car is starting to look pretty nice in my opinion. Just have to fix some things as we go. The interior has been coming along and I finally got some nice pics today of her outside when I took a cruise and stopped over at Randy's to take a peak at his progress. Nice to finally get her out. Still having fuel gauge problems but will be dropping tank next i guess after we burn some fuel:TU:.

    I'll chime in for the color.... Not knocking the solid reds or blacks but so many muscle cars are those colors. Of course fake ss chevelles make up 99% of that. MEAN AND GREEN BABY:TU:

    quote=Jclstrike;1518199]Hi all,
    Well here is my project that I bought over the summer. Its a CA car and was built in Fremont, CA. I did a lot of work to get the car running over the summer. The car ran but had no power, leaked everywhere and was missing shocks in the front. I have found the blower motor is inop, speedometer is inop, fuel gage inop, battery leaking acid everywhere, front lights not working, no reverse lights, half brakes light inop, and the list goes on. I just put it into heated storage recently where I will continue to work on her and fix things as I go. Here is a few pics and will upload some more recent pics and give you my thoughts and ideas on what will be done. My body guys is already working on the front fenders at this point. Thanks and watch for more updates![/quote]
    i have speed
