Hey, Gritsngumbo,

Yes I did get a 65 and I have it at the house waiting to be next in line.
I'm going to give it to my brother and he's will be working on it after I get done with mine, He's just moved down from Ga. and living with me now.
So between us we now have two Slick's and I'm still looking for the next one that I fine at a good price It's all about finding that great deal on a Slick.(':D')

Wow, you've done a lot of work to that, looks great! :cheers:
You may want to trim about an inch off your upper radiator hose (on the radiator end), so you don't risk a kinking problem.

What paint did you use on the firewall?

Slick Fan,
Thanks, I new that I had forgotten to do something and that was it, trimming off the rad. hose to stop the kinking problem.
Thanks for reminding me.
I have been working on it since January almost every weekend and hope to be done soon. I did a complete frame off restore, I still need to add more photos when I get the chance to do so.
