Rebuilt Steer n Gear power steering box installed. The old one fought tooth n nail, but it lost! Also got the GV last night so it’ll be dropped off at the trans shop to be installed on the rebuilt 727.

Computer harness is in. I ran it to the glove box, will make it look neater than what it is.

Looking good. Looks like it belonged in there from the start. Are you trunk mounting the battery or keeping it up front?
 
damn son doing a great job on that project. you have talent my friend going to be a great ride.
 
Battery has been moved to the trunk.
 
Air intake is on, but it could change to a straight pipe as the owner is coming down on Saturday to see where his hard earned money is being spent. Also mounted the APPS/Kickdown set up, still need to run the cables for it. Trans should be done tomorrow so I’ll get that stuffed back in.

Looks great! Is there plans on painting the engine bay too?
 
I’m not going to be the guy doing that, but at some point he wants to get it done.
 
So true! The side of rail cars have my autograph, lol!!
 
I picked up the trans (rebuilt with the good stuff) and they installed the GV’s on it for me.

Got the trans with GV’s installed yesterday. I had to grind down 2 stiffening ribs on the GV to get to sit right along with cutting open the tunnel. The starter fit perfectly, but a couple of spots on the engine had to ground down.

you do some great work. the owner will be proud of it
 
Headers are in and they totally clear column shifted linkage. TTI says “NO” column shift for fitment. So I emailed pics to them as they wanted to see for themselves. Also trimmed the drivers rear fender lip to clear the tire and the owner brought down the fender lip trim along with new door hinges (the drivers door drops a 1/4 when you open it).

5.7 what great work and i'm sure that tti is also happy seeing the pics you sent. again great work i bet the owner is having a hard time not sleeping in it till its done. going to be a great car
 
This little diamond in a goats *** is definitely gonna surprise a lot of unsuspecting people. Lol!!!

I’m going to completely rebuild the front suspension also as I’m doing the rear. The front is wore out so badly, the passenger side TB was bent, thought I was going to need a cut off wheel to get it out.
 
nice anything special or just going to sweeten it up.
