    Hey, any progress is good progress! And working 2 (or more) jobs like you do, and a family too... I'd say you're doing fine.

    I took the coupe for a quick ride last sunday. I was going to use it to visit my friend that's doing the factory five 33 hot rod, but as I was backing out my Dad showed up so I asked him if he wanted to go for a ride. He said sure so we just cruised around some of the back roads.

    Thanks. That had to be a very nice day of cruising with pops. You have to take advantage of everyone of those days you can!

    Today a pile of parts showed up so hopefully over the next few days I can get some of them put on. I have the lower control arms off right now so I can cut down the coils to drop it a little. I wish I had the extra cash right now to buy my upper control arm del-alum bushings and the 2g drop springs I want. But I don't so for now I'm installing new upper and lower ball joints, new sway bar bushings and links, and del-alum bushings in the lower control arms. I'll have to do the springs and UCA bushings in the spring.
