The Yellow Beast

OK so here we go, my first ever blog. i bought a 1965 impala SS 2 door hardtop with the intention of doing it up and adding my own little touch to it. it's not got the original 392 Ci engine someone has put a 454 in instead *big grin* here's some pics of it as i got it:

the picture make it look much better than it actually is. here's some internal pics too:

lovely looking car, and i managed to drive it a whole 4 hours before it broke down. that was about 2 months ago and i still haven't got it going yet *slaps head*, it took 3 weeks to get a power steering hose that would actually fit. But thanks to the guys at Earls *plug* and it got working.

now the brakes don't work and the MOT has run out so I've set about replacing the weatherstrips which are totally knackered. started today and damn it if we haven't got a massive rain storm, lucky i got a cover for it, genius is mearly forward planning.

oh yeah here's a pic of the power house and you might be able to make out my shiny new hose:

hopefully tomorrow it won't rain and i can get to putting the strips back on, and take a few more pics. aah no rest for the wicked.
