Couple new pics for my build thread. New equipment being added.
Trying to have it ready to drive to “may it forward” in May.

Looking 👀 good! All these build threads that are showing close to completion give me the impetus to get mine where it will at least go farther than the 1/2 gallon temp fuel cell allows and, more importantly, stop!!!

Have you fully welded the wedges? With all that shiny new paint, I’m guessing all welding is done?
Or are they just sitting there waiting for you to twist the axle to line up the driveshaft?
Seems from the photo like you could benefit from a little less down angle on the pinion.

Looks great Pat. I want to do a hydroboost on two of mine.

I don’t know, 🤷🏽 I’m kinda digging the stark contrast between the black and yellow. The only question I have is what are the approximately 6” X 6” bump ups back towards the windshield? Just a curiosity.

Air intake for the heater and fresh air on the driver.
Ah, I see! I’m assuming the original “vent openings “ were either absent from your hood or they were closed up.
Whatever the reason, they really accentuate the lines of the hood.
