I second the suggestion of lots of pics. My ex rebuilds older cars and trucks (I think the current truck is a 59 Chevy, and the long term project is the 69 Dart) as a hobby. For some extra cash, he's written articles for various gear head publications, and progress pics are invaluable for that. Not to mention it helps prove all the work that you've done on it.

Good luck, and have fun!! I wish I had the time/money/knowledge to do it.

True, and the cc is going in with the exhaust.

Disc brakes are a given.

As for the rest, this project is one more attempt to relive my misspent youth and convert my grandson and great nephew to the joys of the classic american muscle car.
