    Is that new paint? It looks to be in good condition. I wonder what the rest of the car looked like

  4. I had a spare door skin and asked the painter to paint anything he wanted on it.

  6. OK I’m trying to make some progress on the 56 while the 57 is getting painted. I buttoned up my gauge cluster and got it installed. 55/6 guys can you see what’s different about it?

  13. Ding ding ding, you are correct sir! Since I put those on the dash I had to eliminate them in the cluster.

    looking good.
    I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE VETTE
     
  18. I can’t wait to see it too. The painter informed me that the color i picked out was all wrong for the car and all his painter buddies agreed. So it’ll be interesting to see what it looks like:cool:

    They used to call them PRINDLES in these parts.
     
  26. Lol i get it now!:D
     
  27. I just installed the missing screw:cool:
     
  28. OK I’m just gonna throw this out there, my official goal is to have the 56 Belair move under it’s own power by next Monday dec 7. That’s the
    end of my long weekend,I’m real close. The brakes are bled, everything is full of oil, motor turns over by the key now, most of the wiring is done, clutch linkage is done. I have to finalize my plug wires, set the distributor, mount clutch fan, just a bunch of small jobs. I work 4 more 10pm-6am shifts then I'm off Thursday morning. Please harrass me if i miss the deadline:D
