yes but fred, you do know that 15+ years of sanding dust compiled onto them parts, made them worth more right? lol nice clean up on them parts man. glad you could put them to good use.

All that sanding dust just means a little bit of your birds are now safe with me.  Like car DNA.

I am figuring after the weather breaks in spring. Probably March or April.  All depends on you guys and when we can all get together.

Progress has been slow the last few months. Im running low on cash and have had other projects to get done before the snow flies so unfortunately the car has taken a back seat. Most of that stuff is done now and I am trying to clean my mess of a garage so I can move the car to a different position and be able to park in there over the winter. I did get a few parts last week and was able to get some odds and ends buttoned up under the hood. The engine bay is almost done. I'm waiting for the fender braces and fuel line to come.

Passenger side...


Drivers side...


Before.....(This was a year ago)


After..... Boy how time flies.

Thank you!

I got some more little stuff taken care of today. Got all the headlamp harness routed secured and grounded. The fuel line and fender braces are installed. Gonna attempt fitting the nose here in a little bit!  ;D

I installed the hood and nose today as well as got some small stuff done. The nose was a ROYAL PITA. I could not get it to go on with the bumper installed so off it came and now the nose is on. Kind of a dry fit because im sure it will have to come back off to get the bumper in but I am gonna try to squeeze it up in there first. I also need to regap the hood.  Too close on the front of the drivers fender.
