Looks great Charles; some nice bling there. Can't wait till you have 'fire in the hole'!
BTW, what are you going to use for an air breather now that the stock air cleaner won't fit?

 

round 14 inch billet edelbrock that matches the valve covers...

 

basically down to exhaust and radiator ... then going to start building
a custom console to extend from existing center console to dash for gauges ,stereo , gps , etc . so i dont damage the stock dash,, i will make a template and share if it looks good enough..

 

Sounds exciting! Just a thought. I recommended this to Tony. Since you're thinking about a custom console for gauges etc, have you looked at the products that W70442 makes? They are custom for 68-72 Cutlass and retain the 'original' look while adding functionality with that 'special look'. Just a suggestion; have a look at some of his products - he also does custom work to match customer requests. Scroll through the whole thread; there's a gauge/radio cluster that's custom for 68/69 there too! https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums...tml#post171504

 

more similar to this but black .. with room for everything ..

removable so no holes in dash at all .. none of the other funky stuff in the pic

 

I think Randy does stuff like that too. If it's already on your drawing board though....
and I forgot another thing. I don't want to be the bad guy for getting you to spend another 13000??
