Re: Project: Mistress

....I wish I could find where we had the engine mounted on the frame prior to putting the cab back on, but I just cannot find those pics....SO here are some pictures of the engine bay...I guess i need to knock a little dust off that radiator!!!....BTW...nothing special under that plastic bag either....just a little ol' holley 4 barrel carb....also bought that booster/MC from Sammy.....Thanks Sammy!!!
I have laid down some heat shielding...not done with this yet...and I guess I need to get that fuel tank neck grommet on too...I know it'll be a PITA!!!.....but tape looks cool, right?!?!!?....OHHHH....look at that original blue paint on the firewall....that stuff's 40 years old....hahaha...Actually...I'm a little embarrassed to say that I didn't take everything off the firewall before paint (remember I'm a Resto virgin)....so I'll paint it before covering.....hey...no making fun!!!!....

Also included a driver side shot....got the vent windows installed after replacing the seals...what a PITA #&#^&!!!!.....I still need to get the windshield and back glass in (Got it ordered to be installed this Friday)..OH....REMINDER to self....self, get bigger wheels and tires...anyone interested in 'vintage' blades!!!
