Vintage Bow Tie Muscle Headlight Assembly

Once the headlight assemblies were reinstalled, the new front bumper was bolted up. Mid America Motorworks provides all new hardware for ease of installation. The finish on the bumpers was mirror-like.






Vintage Bow Tie Muscle Front Grilles

Coming down the home stretch, the front grilles were screwed in and the hood was prepped for installation. Once again, much caution was taken during installation due to tight tolerances.






Vintage Bow Tie Muscle Cowl Installed

Finally the cowl is installed, and this baby starts to take shape. All items were rough fit and will be meticulously aligned prior to vehicle delivery.







Vintage Bow Tie Muscle Completed

Not bad for half a day's work. We have most of the exterior components installed and can't wait until it's on the road.








Vintage Bow Tie Muscle Special Thanks

Special thanks go to Corvette enthusiast Dave Carara of Creative Towing for graciously flatbedding our latest project from the Super Chevy Corporate Garage to Motor City Auto Body in Newark, New Jersey.
