I was kinda bored and "test fitted" one of the 295/35-18 tires.. wow I hear mini tub and wide fenders LOL
I wanted to see how the tranny looks "in place"
and here I cut the knuckles for 13" C5 brakes
still have to wait for some more parts so I got all the interior & wiring out and test fitted the 59 bel air dash. still need a few more cuts & welds but you got the idea

I took off headliner and the old cardboard insulation
new carpet LOL
bye bye cardboard
lots of wire brushing, scuff and sanding and finally coated with rust preventive paint
time for some new butyl & aluminum insulation to the whole interior

...ok - that's it so far!!!
