Default Re: Big Block's Return

Well been going like Mad on the truck this week we are down to the things that don't look like much but take a lot of time to do.. I did get lax on the picks as i was in the grove and just plain old forgot..

I took the headlights and side markers and front parking lights since they were old and not looking the best I took the chrome rings off them and polished them and then used VHT night shades to smoke them..

Also got the chrome on the front and all the lights mounted also the lower stone guard too and here is how it looks still have to finish the grill tomorrow..



Then worked on some more wiring under the hood and new heater hoses clamps, battery cables and battery too..


Fuel pump relay.



Also got the seat back from the carpet cleaner and it looks like new keep in mind this seat came out of the same 85 chevy that all the int trim work came from..


Them got the headliner and A and B pillar and the front and back trim in and the seat..



Also I had to take to gas filler necks and make one cause the truck is a 76 and the box is a 85 and the fuel tanks and the fuel neck are different so I took the 85 filler neck and cut the end of the 76 filler neck off and welded them together and that worked perfectly. Ill get a pick of that tomorrow too..

I am working on the rest of the trim parts but the door panels so all the int trim work will be done tomorrow as well as the hood mounted too and have to do the tail light wiring too then just little stuff till it is just right again..

Thanks For looking..
