My New Project 63' SWB Big Window

Well i've been looking for a 63' Big Window for awhile and i finally found it. Its in good condition with a 350/TH400 and no major rust. It came with an extra windshield and another rebuilt TH400. All in All i think its a fair deal for 3k.

My plan is to Dropmember front & Rear and lay it out on some steel smoothies.

Should be a fun project,
