Sorry none of the emblems are on i just finished painting it not too long ago and im waiting for fall break so i can wet sand and buff it out and make it look nice. Thanks for all the comments guys i just can't wait to get a real motor in it an LS1 coming summer 2006.

Na didn't take any front because i still have to wet sand which means there are some grill pieces that i might as well leave off. For the same reason on teh back i left off the new tail light bezels and trim until i get it done wet sanded. I will try and get some pictures up after i am done wet sanding which looks like will be around 2 weeks away when i am on fall break from school. Its hard to find time to do this stuff haha.

Thats a nice 66 you got there. I really wanted a 66 because i like the front end look alot better. However, i came across a deal i couldn't refuse and i do like the 67 tail lights better so i guess its a tradeoff. Maybe we can figure out some of this Ls1 in a 66-67 A body stuff together because i have never done one of these swaps before. I was planning on going with a t56 in mine but the th350 died on me and went ahead and put int the 700r4 so thats what im gonna stick with.
