The latest update as at 9th March 2015 is posted below

Engine was cleaned and the old paint stripped off










Gearbox pre stripping




Cluster gears and bottom shafts in very good condition








Gear selector repaired and top tower pins replaced


New fully sealed front and rear bearings fitted and bronze bushing between input and output shaft


All back together ready to paint


After removing head have decided to have block bored out to 30 thou oversize and fit new pistons and rings




Head is good with new valves fitted


Original pistons. Bearings and lifters are serviceable and will be reused





My home made spray booth ready for work with the stripped chassis prior to sending away for sandblasting


The old paint looked ok  but peeled off 


Sandblasted and ready for painting


The painting process has began.


Next was the Gearbox


And at last the chassis, which came up very nice indeed.






Now let the assembly of this Chevy begin...............
