This thing is coming together nice and looking super sexy, I like it! I picked up a set of the door switches at the local auto parts store, seam to be pretty common but I believe mine were 3/8"? Just incase you don't know and I'm sure you do the door switches come too long and collapse to the correct length when you shut the door (I didn't know this and did mine in the vice so it didn't ding up the car).

Absolutely a beautiful job, just got mine back from e coat, looking at your work make me wanna get back at it.

Clean looking and sexy as hell! That Hemi is going to leave a LOT of rubber all over the roads! (No charge to the county for rubberized coating of asphalt of course)

Went thru 2 new top motors from classic that were no good
The 45 year old motor worked best
Waiting on top to be installed
Lack trans lines and heater hoses to be able to crank
Just installed the billet hinges

 

[Darius]

Are those hinges awesome or WHAT!!! Takes a minute to get them on but what a difference....and they look great too!

 

[stuka1166]

IF you could post a video when you get the car running...That would be appreciated !!!

AWESOME WORK !!!

 

[Roadrunner528]

Trans lines, heater hoses and power steering hoses installed just about everything mechanical completed for bringing her to life.
At the top shop waiting
Picture of her going on rollback but cant wait to go under power
Seems like the little nickel and dime stuff just prolongs everything, we now have a new Chinese ignition switch that is bad, going to try and find nos

Those hinges are made by Eddies Motorsports. Summit has them as do most speed shop on line places.
They are pricey but very awesome pieces. I can shake my entire car from the front corner of the hood when it is full open and the hood does not move like it would with stock hinges.
