I know from my previous work with Camaros that early builds sometimes used carry over parts/procedures from the previous model year. On that note when I installed my new brake line from inline tube(Brown rubber tip in pic) it was 2 inches too short to land in the bracket it needed to. Inline had to make me one that was shorter than their pattern which makes me think that Chevy changed the bracket location after the model run started

Still waiting on getting the axles rebuild, hopefully I will have them by the end of next week. In the mean time I'm going to start putting all the accessories on the engine which is back from being rebuilt (original 350 rebuilt stock)

This is just top work. Looking outstanding. Love the wax pencil marks on the frame. I don't doubt the authenticity of the door...just can't recall seeing it on a Chevrolet....but don't assume anything when it comes to Inline Tube.
Keep up the great work. More pics please.
