    You are going to love that BrassWorks radiator. The one in my 27 is over 20 years old and I'm reusing it this rebuild of the car. Very heavy construction and they cool great. Walker refused to build me one because my shell is chopped 8 1/2 inches and they said a radiator that small wouldn't cool a sbf..........the BrassWorks said no problem and it worked fine.

    The little engine is out. Just got back my 2 rebuilt Holley 94s and a Rebel Wire 9+3 wiring harness.

    Replumbed the brakes. I didn't like the way they were run and the brake line on the rear end did not have a flex hose on it.

    Tore our the headliner and cleaned out all the mouse poop, nests and bodies. Wow, it doesn't smell bad any more.

    Now to rewire it and convert to 12 volt. Install the 59AB engine and new radiator. Then finish the interior.

    I really love this coupe of yours, what a find. Coincidentally, I'm just starting to install the same Rebel 9 + 3 wiring kit on my 27. I sat in a chair last night and sorted out what circuits I will be using (No a/c or third brake light on my car, no wipers/radio either) but very impressed with how it looks so far.

    Keep us posted on your build.
