espo Posted May 13, 2022 Posted May 13, 2022 I also like the interior. Having owned a few GM cars from this era I like seeing the OEM style shifter, I always liked the reverse lock-out feature. Carpet looks great. The seat pattern is 1965 but most would never even notice except an old rivet counter.
mvadrag Posted May 14, 2022 Posted May 14, 2022 Wow! A lot of nice work going on here. This is going to look great when finished.
dino246gt Posted May 14, 2022 Author Posted May 14, 2022 Thank you, the interior isn't great but will look fine inside the hardtop. I just like '64 Chevelle hardtops, not an easy kit to find, so I'm using a resin body.
dino246gt Posted May 18, 2022 Author Posted May 18, 2022 Here's my progress today, foiled around windows, made and installed "glass" from thin sheet plastic, started dashboard and still thinking about everything else! 2

David G. Posted May 19, 2022 Posted May 19, 2022 Wow! ? You have a lot of amazing work going on with this one. All of it looks fantastic. David G.
dino246gt Posted May 20, 2022 Author Posted May 20, 2022 So I'm using the excellent Revell '65 interior for my resin '64, except I'll stick with the '64 dash, so that required some adjustments. First I cut the pedals from the '65, straight forward, and so are the other pictures, just a step by step of a simple job, so hope you enjoy it. 4
espo Posted May 21, 2022 Posted May 21, 2022 Great looking interior. I like how you moved the pedals over.
dino246gt Posted May 21, 2022 Author Posted May 21, 2022 Started wiring the 427 today, spark plugs, and the small parts got pre-wired ready for paint, cheers. 1
Dragonhawk1066 Posted May 22, 2022 Posted May 22, 2022 Nice work on the grille/headlights, and on the chassis. Excellent looking interior, and the paint is gorgeous.
Beamerman Posted May 23, 2022 Posted May 23, 2022 Awesome work...love the paint job and the wiring...really nice!
dino246gt Posted May 24, 2022 Author Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) Here's the motor just getting ready for installation, added an alternator bracket and oil filter, plus a few other small goodies. Will do paint touch-ups and add more details after installation, previous post was just a test fit. Cheers! Edited May 24, 2022 by dino246gt 2
espo Posted May 24, 2022 Posted May 24, 2022 Great looking level of detail. All that wiring would have my eyes crossed.
David G. Posted May 25, 2022 Posted May 25, 2022 Amazing work on that wiring! With all those wires sticking out everywhere, it almost looks like an actual 1:1 engine swap! David G.
drodg Posted May 25, 2022 Posted May 25, 2022 Okay just started looking at these posts. What a great job. The grill and headlights are like why don't I have that kind of talent? The paint job and detail of the engine etc is just great.
