KBS is a paint on rust inhibiter like POR.
They have a whole kit for frames.
It cleans it, then etches it, and then you paint on the coating and it self levels. The stuff hardened up pretty good. I have already dropped stuff on without a mark.
The hubs are just stock camaro caps, just without the trim ring.
I had them powderedcoated black satin and may leave them that way for awhile.
I just have to give it a better stance.
This winter I would like to change over to a hotchkis suspension and a Kore-3 big brake setup. Well, that's the plan anyways.
Detroit Speed Heater delete plate in with Vintage Air bulkhead fitting setup.

Engine compartment is starting to come together.

Hoses are going on now, fuel, cooling, vacuum, etc....
Love the look of these gates shrinkable clamps and have heard great things about them. Have never used them before so I will keep a supply of regular cheap ugly hose clamps in the trunk toolbox just in case.
They do look trick though.

Thanks guys.
Test fitting the Anvil Auto radiator closeout.
Seems to fit pretty good.
Now I just have to paint it and the Customs Works rad cover.

Got the new shifter from Lokar.
Started fabricating the center console for it to fit into.
More pictures of that tomorrow.
