1958 Pontiac project

Welcome to my blog ! On this blog you can follow the progress on the restoration of my '58 Pontiac Star Chief 4dr HT. I bought the pontiac online in Vancouver WA. I was able to do this, without having to travel to the states, with the help of my good friend Dan. He helped me with money transfers, shipping,etc... Dan is also helping trough out the whole process with advice and sending over parts that i am missing or need to replace. So, a special thanks to Dan and Irene! I hope you all will enjoy my blog and feel free to comment!

Rebuilding the engine block from 370ci to 400ci

The engine block is completely done. The cylinders have been bored out from 370ci (6.1L) to 
400ci (6.6L). Not sure how much more horse power it will produce but i am sure that it will run like new again and even better, now it is bigger in size. On the pictures you can see they did a good job with the cylinder walls.
