Got a little bit more done on the dash.

Arm was getting sore from beatin' on the dash pieces, so I started working on mounting the radiator.

Now That's a cooling system!

Thanks Wayne. It's from Hendrix racing team, but was never used. I had intended to use it for a 396 big bloc, but I think it will work ok for the LS.

Got the seats back from Red Green's Upholstery Shop. Did a bit more work on the dash and started the console.

[Motown 454]

Being from Sudbury I know exactly who Red Green is! Did you have have to drive to the Possum Lodge to pick them up or did they bring them down in one of his wacky cars? :7)

Yes, in fact he delivered them in the van with the power windows. See link: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1uG6grzdUf8#

Still working on the interior, all be it, not very quickly. Got the shifter installed and the ebrake.

Got the right side of the console installed. Just some welding, filler and sanding to do and it will be ready for paint. Recieved my new seat skins and foam, but i won't be doing the upholstery until the rest of the interior is complete. If anyone knows a good way to lenghten an automatic shifter cable, your instruction would be much appreciated.

I used a B&M cable on mine when using a OEM style shifter, works great.

[bonecrrusher]

I didn't know that. Thanks for the info, Bonecrusher. I really appreciate that.

Super late on seeing this - but nice parts!

Are you going to be able to get those paddle shifters wired up and working?

[wfo guy]

If you can use the associated parts, Morse 33c cables can be made any length.

[Dave B]

Nice work! Where in Canada are you?

Thanks Al. I googled your recommendation and it seems like it may work.

Thanks Bonecrusher. I looked at an aftermarket controller, but it may be easier/cheaper to buy a good used 4l80e from a C6 that will enable the paddles. At any rate, i plan to get the truck on the road, then deal with the paddles at a later date.
I see you got your clutch etc. finished. Bet it feels good to get that out of the way.
