Re: 1972 Medium Olive SWB Driver Build-“Chester”

Hope everyone had a good Easter. Got a little more done today than I expected. Wasn’t real motivated when I went out in the garage and immediately tinkered with about 10 different things until I started focusing on the engine bay. I decided to start cleaning the engine bay which let me to pull most of the wiring harness and then prep for paint. I shot the heater box, inner fenders, and core support with VHT epoxy paint in Satin Black. I love this paint and use it on almost everything. Overall turned out good.

I’m not liking how messy some of the wiring is so I’m redoing a few splices and re-wrapping everything up nice and neat.

I’ve been talking with a few buddies and given I have an issue with the carb and a few things appear to be halfway done, I’m probably going to be ordering a 600 Edelbrock tomorrow. I feel it will be cheap insurance in the long run.
