I'd sprayed the box sections with Dinitrol, I was in such a mess with this stuff that I didn't take any pictures. The headers had plenty of clearance at the steering box.
I had no end of trouble getting the exhaust to fit, this all had to come off again several times when the body went on. Another case of parts supposedly made for a 57 Chevy that must have been tailored on a completely different car.
Time to take it all back to the paint shop, by now I'd sold the Chevy Tahoe and bought a Dodge Magnum Hemi. This was a lot more fun to drive but didn't have a tow bar so Scottie took it back up North for me. Great service, he looked after my pride and joy as if it was his own. It was great to see it rolling back on it's wheels. These are wider repro steels that clear disc brakes that have the dimples to hold the original hub caps. This is the stock look I was after.
