Project I worked on over the winter. What do you think?

Very nice. Just to pick a nit, that windshield washer pump was used on 1966 cars. Even though the '67 inner fenders were still punched with those 3 mounting holes, the 1967 B-body pumps were mounted directly on the bottom of the plastic washer bottle. There are electronic voltage regulators out there that resemble the original ones. A company called Weskcar makes a kit to make your aftermarket battery resemble an original. It includes 6 push-in caps to replace the 2 large covers, and an appropriate decal. The kit runs about $25.00, and ships from France in about 2 weeks. I have ordered a few for myself and friends, and have been pleased. They have a website showing different styles.
I have a 1967 R/T, too.
 
Just the wiring alone makes a huge difference!
Well done, awesome job, must be very satisfying.
 
Awesome work
 
Great work , Looks great..... When I've done my last couple, I got a Super Start Battery from Orielly's, They have a flat top, They're Black, Order a Mopar Battery sticker kit with Fake plastic caps ($20 maybe less ), They come in Red and green....stick them on, and it really makes the battery area look clean and Vintage......

Been there, done that! Very time consuming.

Great job :thumbsup: Makes all the difference in the world on how the car is presented. Self satisfying also.
 
Thanks to everyone for the positive feedback and their thoughts. Just wanted to mention I used the Borgeson steering box with the Bergman direct fit (no modification coupler) and do not have any issues on a 67 coronet. No hissing, no noise, no leaks and solved all my steering woes (no leaks, no play in steering, no wandering). Both highly recommended.
