Finished it up and I am happy with the results!Fit was excellent no problems.  

Hood Clearance is good on the air cleaner.

Went with a single muffler with a crossover pipe,works well.  

Mounted the body to the chassis..

I decided to make a custom air filter box for the dual carb set up.  

Painted the firewall and underside of the hood and trunk silver in preparation for airbrushing the Tamiya Clear Orange ..

I will try!

Don't forget! paint the intruments.The stock guages were white background with Black lettering!

dashboard detailing.  

I decided to paint the engine and transmission silver.  

Decided to go with a two tone interior.  

Getting the chassis together a nice surprise is the posable front spindle arrangement  Just have to be very careful when assembling the spindles and the rod.  

Very cool!

Nice color Eugene!

An old friend of mine had a '49 Led Sled with a chopped top and a visor over the windshield faired into the roof. He painted it a light tan. I raced against him many times at Atco Dragway. That was one heck of a car. I think over the years we broke even in the number of wins.

Stay safe.

Groovy colour again!
