The Engine Swap Begins - LSX

Sounds like your '65 has a new life. You mentioned something about painting it in the future in your V8garage. How about black with a brushed aluminum color on the top (to match the motor), using the halo trim as a border? Then, trade the chrome Torque Thrust wheels for the same thing in brushed aluminum? :beer

 

The wheel are actually Billet specialties street lites.

I would really like to do that if my schedule allows. We shall see.

 

I can drive her home. I am excited and a little nervous.[/QUOTE]

Sounds like your new date just gave you " that " smile. :beer

We want some cruising video of the car. :bglasses:

 

Looks and sounds great. I'll be following in your footsteps next year sometime hopefully with my Riv. I think I'm going to try and find a L99 with a 6 speed auto though. Keep up the good work and try to get some vids of her out on the road terrorizing the asphalt.

 

TTT, some of our newer members need to read through this thread. :bglasses:

 

I just wanted to bump this thread back to the top. I bought a 99 Silveado with a broken frame. The plan is to swap the 5.3l and 4L60E, the wiring harness, steering column and dash cluster into my 65 Wagon.
