It was supposed to say Mister 6weeks early. Thanks guys. He is going to be the recipient of the car if he helps work on it when he gets a few years older.

Mister 6weeks, Owen.

Did you get the lower hose straightened out? I frequently bend exhaust pipe for lower hoses on stationary engines used for irrigation, then use short pirces of stick hose of appropriate size on each end. Guys switch from a cooling coil that runs well water through a coil inside a pipe filled with antifreeze that has pipes hooked to the motor. The reason for the pipe lower hose is that 70's truck radiatorsare cheap, but the lower hose is on the wrong side for a chevy. The pipe would handle the heat from the downpipe.

Found the previous owner while trying to get a title. He was on the road in Colorado on his way home. He wife called him and he said that the car was stolen from storage around 2000-2001. I left my number and offered to return the car to him if he wanted it. His wife called him and said, he didn't know if they still had the title or if he would have to get a duplicate. He is supposed to call me tomorrow. We'll see what happens next.

Some of the kit is tack welded, other parts have pop rivets. I'm going to strip all of the kit off, then cut and fix the rust in the car. Then I will start trying to replicate the kit as best as I can with a few changes. The kit it's self appears to be made from scrap metal or hvac duct sheet metal

Sweet, thanks. I'm sure it will be tons of work, but tons of fun

She is as I found her. It's all gotta come off though so that I can kill the cancer. I just got her home 5hrs ago. Im going to flair the front some to match the back when it goes back together.

Nice work. Glass or metal?

This is going to be an extremely slow project since the wife told me that I have to finish the bathroom remodel that I haven't started yet before I can spend money on the datto.

The bad :(

1 wheel with tire off. Hard to read in pic but it says C.S.I then 2 "E" stamped in.
