BUILD THREAD Seem like forever

[Starrjkd]

Hi everyone I just wanted to share my build with other gbody fans. I started this build five years ago with limited time . It’s finally looking like a car again. Not a restoration but something to have fun with eventually. 427sb 640 hp, tko 600 5 speed 9 inch Ford rear

I removed the air and fan assembly and put a block out panel from umi. so I had to build the other half of the upper cowl panel to seal the engine bay. Started off with a aftermarket one that didn’t fit so I made my own.

I made the opening for the five speed to fit the original console. I originally bought a 4 speed panel for it but had to modify the panel

I made a trunk block out panel to seal off the trunk. No back seat because of the cage.
