Next Set Of Pics !

Got my roof deadened today.

Before it sounded like a big piece of tin wobbling in the air,

after the deadening was SUPER solid.

A+ for Second Skin :drink40:

Enough talk, on to the pics.

IMG00118-20100609-1315.jpg

IMG00119-20100609-1315.jpg

Getting ready to come off.

IMG00121-20100609-1417.jpg

Bare roof.

IMG00122-20100609-1417.jpg

Had some glue stuff attached but was no problem when it came time for the deadening.

IMG00120-20100609-1417.jpg

Had about a 1 inch gap between the roof and the bracing/steel structure that attached to the roof :ohnoes9:

IMG00125-20100609-1425.jpg

Down to my last 2 boxes

IMG00124-20100609-1425.jpg

Thanx everyone !

will be starting on the false floor today and hopefully starting on sealing the trunk off from the cabin

Pics will be up of todays progress as the day progresses.\

what engine does it have in it?
Currently it is Just a 4cyl. id be cheap to find one like it and swap a 302ci or 460 into in. Gauges are just getting the car prepped before the engine swap for those wondering :drink40:

Not sure what output alternator it has tho :ehh:
