Starting at the bottom

The new body plan is slated to happen in 3 phases.

Phase one:

Finish all welding and metal fabrication - inner fender wells, micro tub work, seams and trunk. Clean up all welds inside and outside of vehicle.  Modify front radiator opening for larger radiator and better cooling. Panel bond and seam sealer on all surfaces excluding dash and exterior body panels for rust and corrosion prevention.

Prep interior floor surfaces and truck then paint with selected body color. Prep and detail engine compartment and paint with color. Undercoat under complete and paint to match. Progress pics as of today.

2017 comes to and end with a restart

The year went fast, really fast but in the end the project has sprung back to forward motion.

A few steps forward is always good.

Custom metal valance mod as there was not a manufacturer located that makes a gt350 style metal front valance. Local good guy Cody Keeble stepped up for the task to make a one of a kind metal gt350 style valance with the large cooling area opened up. This will retain the front bumper and allow more airflow for the build.

The chassis has been dropped at the shop for the following:

Finish all welding and metal fabrication including inner wheel wells. 

Modify front radiator support for larger radiator install.  

Clean up all welds inside ans out of chassis. 

Use panel bond adhesive and seam sealer on all panel joints ans connections for corrosion and rust prevention. 

\Prep interior floor surface including trunk then seal coat. Prep engine department for engine mock up and coat. 

Prep and undercoat seal entire under carriage. 

Single turbo kit acquired and ready for mock up. This used kit has some impressive performance numbers behind it when installed on a 347 stroker.
