Icehouse Posted June 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Best be checking with Bryon on the dash wiring there Jeff, I'm kinda lost there. I haven't even had my 69 dash apart yet, no time for it all. I will, it just seems to me why would they make 2 different harnesses? The dash may be different but I doubt any of he censors are. 2eDeYe;10421'']Nice...Bling bling :D I'm a blinging kinda guy :D looks wonderful. That is the most beautiful 1968 2-door I have ever seen! I bet its the only 68 2 door its coming together icehouse,whats under the hood???? :D A v8 :D coming along wolf man......any new pics? Those pics are from the last time I worked on it, the day before yesterday. I'm hoping to have it on the road soon! It takes time and I don't want to rush it to much. Quote Link to comment

Icehouse Posted July 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 I busted out the "mud gun" today and mounted my IC. It still needs to be primed though. The car and every part I own is slightly bent... I was test fitting everything to see how hard it will be to fit after its primed.... Yep its going to be tuff... Everything ended up working out, with the help of my hammer, gotta make room for the projectors :D I welded rod stock to reinforce the core support. Its hard to tell in the photo, I kinda covered it up with mud :D hehe Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 that is aw-some good job Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted July 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 Thanks its kinda tuff to make any one part of the front straight.... it has creases in the metal.... The rod iron helped but it still needs some work :D I just want to drive the dam thing.... Quote Link to comment

Haha, your pretty good with that "mud gun". And doesn't body work suck! I am doing my car right now, and I am so not motivated to do it. But its gotta be done I guess. My body work sucks! I just did half ass body work, I figure if I don't crash it I will go back some day :D I kinda want to find a cleaner 68 2 door, I know of one that just sits but the dude won't sell it. Even though it was for sale a few years ago when it ran. WOOOOAH! you are an amazing Datto Dood.I want you to work on my car... I have not worked on my Datsun in ages but I hotwired a Toyota and drove off with it! :D I don't work on Z's! I might want one :D It started after sitting that long? Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 Glad to know mines not the only crooked fawk around here.:rolleyes: That looks mean with that intercooler tucked in there...I knew you could do it :D Are you cleaning up the grill or repainting it? Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted July 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 dude it wasn't easy getting it tucked back there, I had to get a different radiator and cut a lot of the body out. Not that I mind cutting the body. Hopefully I can fit a good sized fan behind it :D I think I'm just going to repaint the grille its to bent and beat up to spend a lot of time on. I really want a Blue bird grille but 750 isn't something I have to throw at a grille right now :( Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted July 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 I want my car to look like this :D Quote Link to comment
Duke Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 My body work sucks! I just did half ass body work, I figure if I don't crash it I will go back some day :D I know what you mean, mine turns out about as straight as Elton John. Oh well, I'm painting it white, and with rustoleum, so I guess it doesn't matter to much. So what kind of radiator are you going to use...doesn't look like you will have much room.

I got the same radiator as Ben. I forget his user name on both pages :D haha He has the white and blue bubble flared 2 door with the black top sr.. he runs it in his car and says it works great. So I'm giving it a shot, its very compact and seems to fit nice at the moment. i saw that car at shasta, the owner of it is pretty cool. I wonder if he would care if I copied his car :D send me a link.. i wanna see... check it out dude They require some serious cutting but I don't mind :D Quote Link to comment
tangent Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 They do this eh?? Switch it to ingition so they work as running lights.. cool.. I want some. Quote Link to comment
