The new engine is in the 36 panel!

The heart of the beast has arrived!!!! check out the badass 454 and 700r4 trans in 36 panel. Here is the motivation to make it run.

The 36 panel is back in the shop!

Pulled the panel in and removed the body the other day. Its time to start working on this chassis again. I changed some stuff on the rear suspension and mounted the airbags in a different spot. This gave me more space to mount the box for the battery and all the air ride controls. Now i can order the fuel tank and get it mounted behind the air ride box. The new engine should be here tomorrow. I can get the trans crossmember built and try to finish the chassis completely.

Getting closer on the 49

I finished mounting the fuel tank and made some simple filler panels for under the doors and added a brace for the running boards.. Waiting on parts again. The parts thing is killing me!

Getting a little closer on the 49 Chevy

Well, I finished mounting the front sheet metal. Mounted the radiator and welded some brackets for a front bumper. I started laying the frame work for the false bottom in the bed. I also started mounting the 16 Gal. fuel cell in the back. should have the rear finished up in the morning. There is light at the end of the tunnel on this one.
