    Larry And Herb. The dash pad is not all that hard to do. If you like, email me so I can give you my phone number if you don't still have it. I will be more than happy to walk you through it. There is just a few small tricks to it and I can tell you much better that I can write it. Brian G.

    Experienced opinion needed

    I have a McLeod internal one in my 55 chevy. It works great and has a very fast action. Almost to fast for a street car. The pedal pressure is about the same as the stock linkage. I used a wilwood master and slave. I bought the whole setup from McLeod. One problem I do have is the res. always...

    Pics of my 60. And how it drives

    Thanks all for the nice comments. Larry I used all the stock hardware for body mounts. Now that I have a few miles on the car I will go around all the body bolts with an inpact to make sure all is tight. Cowl shake is going to happen with any vert. Thats why I like coupes much better. When it...

    Pics of my 60. And how it drives

    Thanks Tom. That was what I was going for. I not a big fan of the big wheels and wide tire look. I think these cars look best in a vintage form . Race car or mostly stock. Did that car in your post that looks yellow come from Charile Bacon out of Calif. If so I almost bought it from him. But we...

    Pics of my 60. And how it drives

    Larry. I just don't like the ride. I have tried every setting and it is still to stiff for me. I have 350 fronts and 325 475( I think ) in the rear. Mike sent me a set of 250's for the rear but I have not had time to try them yet. I may be just asking for to much. But if I where to do it again I...

    Pics of my 60. And how it drives

    The SRIII chassis works great. I'm not all that happy with the coil over shocks but you can't have it all. The LT1 and 700R trans turned out to be a good choice. It runs perfect stays nice and cool. Thanks to the DeWitts rad and fan setup. As you can see I wanted the car to look all stock. Until...

    A good productive day today.

    Makes me think about getting started on my next GS coupe. I need to take the tub out also. I love starting with nothing. It makes for a much nicer build. Looks like fun. As soon as my 60 is done I'll be cutting up the coupe. Nice work John. Brian G.

    A few pics of my 60 project

    This past year in Carlisile I saw Al and he told me he was starting to sell the wise guy seats all done and ready to go. So I ordered the whole int. on the spot. Big bucks for the whole deal. But Al is the best. My seats are packed away right now so a pic.is not so easy. I do need to take them...
