Projects 53 Business Coupe Build

Beautiful work!

 

53chevtrev

awesome build, can you post a pic of how you access the brake fluid reservoir?

your pics and build are inspiring

 

I will post pictures as soon as I sort out that dilemma. Most likely gonna do a remote reservoir somewhere that is easier to access than under the dash. Don't want brake fluid near my interior.

Yov've got a good eye for detail and design, great work!

 

I am using a 700r4 transmission. Not sure what you mean by needing to upgrade and what kit?

Moved the car out of the garage while I am doing a bunch of work on my friends 53 chevy. Nice to see it from far away!

Really looking good, the longer view is nice and really shows how it is coming together.

 

I'd love to see more photos like this. Gives us all inspiration. Keep up the good work!

Good news, brought the car home tonight. Finished my buddies 53 and I am eager to get going on my car. Got a load of work to do and acquired a bunch of parts over the break. Excited. Great to see my car rolling and outside today!

It looks fantastic !

That thing looks amazing! Anxious for more progress.

 

Damn it looks good...... Great job on the detail

 

Just joined HAMB and found this thread. Spent a couple hours reading it and admiring your work. Gotta say, your car is beautiful and your work is amazing.

 

The overall stance and shape of the body with it's modifications is frigging nice.Can't wait to see it completed and in paint!

 

Yes!..can wait to see you go back to work on it

 

Looking really good Trev.Viewed from this angle the chop and stance really comes out perfect.Have you considered running a single floating bar in the grill instead of filling it up with a lot of teeth? The front in this pic looks so subtle and clean and I like it a lot.

 

Thanks!

Its not the first time I have seen it from afar but its always feels like the first time as I am always staring at it in the garage.

Thanks dude, should have some solid progress this weekend.

Thanks man

Thanks so much dude!

Me too!

Im back working on it now. Feels great!

Thanks ken, means a lot coming from a guy like yourself! Im over the moon with the chop and look now that its all coming together. As much as I like the single floating bar, I am gonna be running the factory teeth. Set on my vision and Im gonna stick to it! keep up the badass work on your 36!

 

Got the drivers side dash corner finished tonight. Decided to mount it back to the stock pinch so that the factory style piping can be run down the A-pillar to the floor. Should be able to get the passenger side done Saturday.

The dash looks great (but i might be impartial )

 

Best looking dash chevy made in my opinion.

Car looks great!!.....Love the whole car but really like the rear!!

 

Fabbed up a bracket out of aluminum to mount the air tank I got from my wife as a present for Xmas. The tank is by Specialty Suspension and it's completely seamless. No welds on the entire tank, very cool and guaranteed leak free. Both tank and mount will be polished.

WOW looks killer man... Great work

 

love it

 

I really like the integration of dash. Looks like it belongs, not was added as an after thought.

 

Thanks so much dude!

Me too! thanks

Thanks, this is my goal whenever I plan a custom modification to any part of my car. I want everything to flow and look like it belonged there from the start. I think I have achieved that with the dash swap or as close as possible with my knowledge of metal work.
