Well, I've got a problem with my engine again so I've got an excuse to pull my engine and do some more work to her .


Whilst she's down I will be doing this to it...


ENGINE

- Block is getting bored over
- Head is getting ported and polished
- New Gaskets all around
- Re-Building the Weber and Re-Jetting it
- New Air Filter
- Offy Intake
- Flowmaster or stacks (haven't decided yet )
- (new gears?)


INTERIOR

- Bolt in new floor boards
- Tearin out the cracked dash
- New deck/subs (custom box behind seat)/speakers
- Rhino-Line the dash/doors/floorboard
- Bench Seat is getting re-upholstered and custom stitching
- Mikado steering wheel (know where I can get one?)


EXTERIOR

- Put on my bull bar
- Fix broken fog light
- Rip out existing purple tint and replace it
- Try to find a stepside in good condition



Now, while I've got her stripped is there anything else I need to/should do?



Thanks guys.

i'd undercoat it which would save that floor panel job your planning depending on where u live.

oh and the frame too....and check brake lines and fuel line

I was planning on rhinolining the bottom of the tub after I treat it as well, but the frame? I've never heard of this...

well i had the unfortunate pleasure of living in ohio for 14yrs swore i'd never take the chance after what i've seen and what happened to a buddy.
we put a 327 into his '76 nova after 6 hrs. of work it was already to go.30 seconds into his burnout the nose was pointing straight and the ass end tried to come up to meet it and prior to this he swore up n down that the frame was good.
but besides it protecting it personally i think it looks good.
