I managed to get some time back in the garage and finally finished-up the motor and transmission mounts to fit the 400/4L80e in the '63. Some of you may recall that engine placement was made somewhat difficult due to interference with the Heidt's front crossmember/suspension setup that the previous owner had installed.

Before jumping into re-doing the floor pan over the trans, I decided that the next step should be to do a mini-tub job to bring the inner fenderwell all the way in to the rear frame rail. I'm about 3/4 of the way through the driver's side.
