    The hood is a fiberglass grabber and we added the cowl. The wheels are explorer but are just on it for the body work and paint. I have a set of street lite wheels and drag radials to put on when it's painted

    I put the correct shocks on the front of the car today. The new one's i put on before were wrong, now the front is down where it should be.

    I installed my front seats. That's the end of the interior work... The front seats aren't perfect, but they aren't bad for almost 46 year-old seats.

    Installed a new electric fuel pump, installed new guages into my console and enjoyed a nice gasoline bath while swapping gas tank lines...
