Got to work painting some of the parts. Tub and other parts turned out good. Went with Fasion Green. Liked it better in person than the pics

Been putting everything together. Good time bolting all the parts together and seeing it come together. Work on wiring and brakes not quite as fun!

Thank you
Great job on the project and the color is fantastic. Can you tell me about the steering column you went with? Is that an "ididit" column? Did the firewall plate come with it or did you have to make it?
Thanks!

Fantastic job! You should be quite proud of the job that you did.
Can you show some pics of your exhaust routing?

Yes I just used the ididit column for a standard GM. I made the lower mount plate myself. Just used a collar and set screws to secure the bottom of the column.

I dont have any right now and its stored away for the winter, sorry about that
Thanks for the reply and it all looks really good. Did you run into any issues with the Ididit column or was it a pretty smooth install?

Very easy to install and work with the factory wires. Just get some wiring diagrams for both and cross reference
