1965 Chevy Pickup & Hemi Hydro combo

I need to start doing that myself....I keep saying I'll do it on my next build, then forget about it until I've got it all sanded and ready for paint!

Alright everyone, we have everything polished up and ready to go together...except the hood, it'll get masked and sprayed with some Candy Apple Green tomorrow. Enjoy the pics, lots more to come!

The rear fenders didn't even need any polishing, I just hit 'em with some Meguiar's #7 and called 'em good!





The hole that the tailgate attachment pin uses cracked somehow, and left this beautiful looking missing area in its place...we'll see what I can do to either hide it or fix it....





And the cab. I'm very happy that I messed up the paint, it came out so much better the second time around!

And in case I forgot to mention it, the boat is finished!

The braided line from the fresh-water pickup to the water pump was a royal PITA to get in place, but it finally gave in around 11:20 last night!





Pam's contribution to this build was this...some waxed thread for sewing leather! I removed as much wax as I could, added a hook, and put it on the reel...it actually works! I can hook it to the boat and crank the handle to pull the boat up, I didn't even plan that one, it just happened to work!

And the last bit of work I got in last night, a quick mock-up of the bed. The floor still fits perfectly, and the fenders and bed cover are also good to go!
