Hi guys, Here is another batch of pictures from my '57 "W" build
1 Test fitting the seats with the console installed. If I remember correctly from 42 years ago they were from a '65? Pontiac GTO.
2 I had the seat notched by my interior guy way back when to clear the 4 speed shifter.
3 I think it looks "BITCHIN"
4 Beginning to look like a '57 Chev again.
5 Time to go to the exhaust shop
6 I borrowed my good friend and he brought his pick up & his car trailer.WHAT A GUY !!! We have arrived at the exhaust shop an hour before they opened. !st come ,1st served is their motto.
7 Waiting for the shop to open.
8 Good to see a pair of "FLOWMASTERS" under the old girl.
9 Finishing up the left side tail pipe.
10 Realized I needed a heat shield for the starter. Too close to the engine pipe for me ! Shield is from Speedway.
11 Back home and now it's time for the left fender. Same treatment as the right side.
12 Nice and smooth.
13 LOOKIN GOOOD!!
14 NOW IT'S CRAMPED IN THERE !!
15 Now to find the stock hood from the parts car and work on that.
More to come.
