I always had a soft spot for the "FE" family & that tunnel wedge looks interesting,
Jeff

I like them as well, and money wise it's like building a 409

You got that right.

Nathan getting his groove on.

Bent up and fitted up.

Nathan has been looking for some bucket seats for the car and I found these on the market place for sale.
So we made a trip to Thomson MO. and Nathan made a deal for these. They are for a 67 Nova and have been completely rebuilt.
Think they make a nice fit for his car. Will take a little mounting bracket work.



Also was doing some painting on some of the under hood parts, then a pop up shower came, well lets just say we will have to redo some of the parts.

Did you get the seats from Hag?
Jeff

 

[La Hot Rods]

Yes he did.
I have never met Terry before, seems like a nice guy with a bunch of expensive engines in his shop.

 

[Murphdog]

And your putting them in a Ford! Can't find some oe type seats?

[La Hot Rods]

Haven't had much luck finding factory seats.

 

[La Hot Rods]

Working on installing the front clip again.
Got all the inner's and shiny bits back in for good we hope.

Going to look amazing when its done. Cant wait to see. Ill make a trip down for a ride.

 

[Murphdog]

Do you have headers for this James? I may have something.
Jeff

 

[La Hot Rods]

Yes he has some Mad Dog headers for it. Need to work on the flanges and pick a coating for them.

 

[La Hot Rods]

Fab up some adjustable radiator support mounts with hopes we can get the front clip to stay where we need it stay.

 

[La Hot Rods]

Nathan got a little side tracked when my oldest son picked up some material to get started closing up and insulating the walls in his shop.

 

[Carmine]

Coming along nicely. What size is the shop?? Are you going to have a lift??, Carmine.

 

[La Hot Rods]

Thinks around 40 x 48. Not sure Nathan will be installing a lift.
