Wow, I haven't posted an update in a while. Things are moving a bit slow lately. Been too darn cold in the garage a lot of nights. So here's where I stand.

I have the engine mostly rebuilt. I'm holding off on the carb, fuel pump and headers until I get the engine set in place permanently. I'm going back and forth on a couple of items. I'm leaning towards going with an electric fuel pump vs. mechanical. Also leaning towards a carb vs. EFI. Not sure I want to go through the headache of setting up an EFI for a daily driver. I've also decided to remove the mechanical fan and go with an electric radiator mounted fan. From my calculations it should let me move the engine 1 1/2" forward. I need all the room I can get. Going with a Walker radiator.


I have the rear suspension fabbed up. Took a lot more work than I was expecting. The rear has been powder coated and is at the shop being rebuilt at the moment.


Put the front clip together with some temp tires. I'm happy with the way it turned out. Had to modify the front fender brackets but it wasn't too hard.


So at this point I've got the front modded up to check for fittness. I'm waiting on the new radiator to arrive before I start finalizing everything. so far I'm happy with how thing are going. I just wish it would warm up.
