Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build

Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
dsraven: You're right. No difference. I was just saying the truck that I took it off of was just a regular GMC.

Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
What about that bumper. Cool factor 8s way up there.
|
Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
I fell in love with the 1951 Caddy front bumper. Thought it would be a good look for it.
|
Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
Yup, definitely fits in the cool factor.

you are an artist

Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
Not me LOL. I give all credit to Levi Green at Hammer Fab. The metal work his team does is amazing. This is out of my skillset. Thanks for the compliment on the truck. It's a little out of the box thinking on this, but the results are blowing me away.

I've seen some cool airbrushed emblems that look like the real deal until you get up close enough to see there is nothing sticking out from the skin.

Driver side fender done. Now on to remove the narrowed 59 impala dash we did a couple years ago. Then put in a 59 impala dash that is not narrowed. The steering wheel did not line up narrowing the dash. Now everything will line up correctly. We didn't have the Glide Engineering seat when we narrowed the dash the first time.

The narrowed dash looked good, but with the new seat in, the steering wheel was off center to the right about 2+".
I just wanted to get it corrected while the time was right and Hammer Fab is doing a new firewall, so... |
Re: 59 Apache/C6 Corvette build
looks good.
will you have enough gas pedal room to drive a long distance comfortably? insulate the new firewall bump so your foot stays cool? keep posting, I am getting the itch to get my garage cleaned out and stash the honey do jar where it can't be found. lol. |
