    You might think about making new ground wires for your head lights and anyplace else you have ground wires. Copper will corrode over time and those 55 plus year old ground wires probably have corrosion in them. I would hate for you to have problems with your wiring because you didn't replace your ground wires. Otherwise, great job and good luck! I will be doing a Painless kit on a 55 Belair soon, so I will be watching closely.

      I refreshed the original 350 that was in my 68 Lemans. But this 400 is still disassembled because it’ll go to the machine shop for inspection, cleaning and boring… then I’ll rebuild with all new Butler parts. But that’s going to cost a lot. So I got the 350 going and I’m rewiring the car now. That’s were all the money has gone 😂

      @@Rustrevivalgarage "That’s were all the money has gone" Lol. That's what I'm starting to experience with my first '69 firebird. Threw a rod the other day so trying to see what options are out there to get it running again. I would go with Butler but that would definitely put a dent in the wallet.

    i think it looks great. They do make a film thats chrome might be a cheap fix for that side.

      Good to know! Yeah, I'd be worried about trying to spray paint it and have it look weird

      @Rustrevivalgarage it's like a vinyl wrap. Never used but I'd imagine if looks bad peel off.

    i recommend a retro sound unit over the hidden unit. I have one in my 72 and its a great set up and looks oem. Another option there is a marine unit thats just a hidden box and remote. I have that for my 66 and just got a delete panel from a special so it looks like no radio.

      I've got a head unit in my Jeep that starts playing music from my phone as soon as I start it up. Don't have to touch anything. And it's only $100. I even control the volume with my phone. I may change and upgrade down the road, but most of my money is going back into the car itself. And the retro radios start at $300 and go up.
