ok got it working LOL
Everything was epoxy coated right after sand blast, then eventually all of the parts that you wont see were coated with Raptor coating for sound deadening and protection, probably will never see water tho LOL
headers modified to fit (flanges cut off and turned) then jet hot coated

Tanks brand fuel injected gas tank with Aeromotive pump and fuel lines all ran, there is a nice cover over this area as well
Here is the cover freshly Raptor lined
Factory radiator with vintage air condensor brace now painted black lol

I think its time to kill my photobucket horrible slow, I will post as much as I can to show the progress but will be out of order LOL
2014 radiator fit to 66 body, widened the opening for more flow, and mocked up our own intake with steep bend to get air filter out of engine bay
THis is where the brain is tucked behind this fabbed cover where the battery used to go (more finished pics later)
THis shows the modified hump for six speed witht eh factory console trimmed to fit, as well as a shot of the vintage air tucked up in dash
Factory heater hose connections on firewall for the coyote (yes cut up a good core just for those sanp on fittings LOL
early plans for the master with remote reservoir, thinhgs changed and I had a custom master made for $$$ Pics coming
QUick pick of modified dash for AC where dash was already cut for stereo, aslo a quick oic of plug and play dakota digital all plugs right into Coyote brain
I have black chrome handles, wheels and mirrors, gonna cost a fortune if I decide to do the trim, bumpers will be white like the car
tidbit of wiring this is the modern fuse box and the VHX system from dakota on the drivers side
And this resides on the passenger side

Pretty parts are all in the chassis for now
trunk and hood hinges from Eddie
passenger side behind those covers is the AC dryer and other componenets, and you can see the massive power wire going back to the battery

I left a lot of stuff out that Mike did, like custom over flow tank, power steering reservoir (you can see in earlier pics) from all american billet, the underside of the car is awesome gloss black and anthicite silver powder coat, with a strange third meember from Bill in San Bernardino, Joes in Riverside will be doing the exhaust, it is really coming together, I cant wait to drive it, it will be wimbledon white not sure if stripes or not
More custom stuff mIke did was lower seat pans, trans hump, roll bar (allows for back seat) custom cover to make trunk floor one level, its goes on and on, I will try to keep it up dated
