Doug's 'Bruiser' The Re-do - BODY

Main Parts Rear Engine Interior Other

The body is one area that was already really nice.  But really nice just won't cut it for Bruiser.  The stock Big Block hood will be replaced with a taller L-88 design hood.  Bruiser will get the longer design that eliminates the wiper door.  Along with eliminating vacuum components such as the wiper door Bruiser will also get rid of the vacuum operated headlights in favor of the electric McSpeed headlight motors.  With the kind of power the engine will be delivering, stock sized rear wheels just won't cut it so Bruiser will be getting L-88 fender flares filled with large meats.

Here some of the wiring is being done through the egg-crate vents for the electric headlights.

Electric headlight motors installed and working.

Now....why are the bumbers off???

.....good news, the L-88 hood arrived.

.....bad news, the fitment is WAY off.

Wheels....
