Tales of two Scamps

-
It's been awhile since I posted anything on my project.Been preparing alot of brackets etc.I did go through my motor to check everything out and re gasket etc.Since I always put everything on a cart and install everything from the bottom I decided to go ahead and wire it up and run it to make sure everything is ok.

im glad to see your still at it. Unfortunately I cannot say the same, my life has been EXTREMELY BUSY and the police academy now gets my full attention. Im glad to say not much longer! Final trimester exam is in less than a month and graduation is the end of December. Then I can work some overtime and make some more money to save away for parts.

Sorry but I can't get a real good picture but just got the tires for my new wheels.Since these are directional tires I went with 215-50-17's all around.Hankook Ventus Evo V12,Oh yeah I was fighting wheel and bumper choice for quite awhile.Was considering painting the bumpers but notice what's on the front

Joe I'm 60 years old so I have just a little more free time than you do.I'm sure you'll get back to it and get it done.You know this thing has a mind of it's own.I keep thinking I'll do it one way then it kicks my *** and it goes a complete different direction.I think that I'm just going with the factory woodgrain dash looking to use the white instrument overlays black dash pad and frame.From the door panels up will be black the carpet will be a dark copper seats and door panels will be white the front seat being the high back bench with fold down arm rest.Anyway that's the plan for now
 
Tossed a couple of things on the project just to get a feel and see if I liked the ralley mirrors on this body style???????????

forgot to mention you didn't even remove the hood
 
Even though it's a good month or so away starting to think about how I'm doing the dash.Don't really want the pure stock and I already have the RMD dash in my Demon.I found in my stash of stuff a Duster plain dash.Thinking of using it painted body color with a little art work on it.The one with the artwork on it is in my Demon.
