get the exhaust done. yesterday i found out that i have a leak in the tranny front seal. so it is back to the shop where they welded it in for me for them to change the seal. then to another shop for the exhaust work then hopefully it is done.

They welded in the seal??????

Man ---I've been reading for two hours waiting and hoping the burn out would be long and smoky. This thread reads like a novel. I'm hoping all the bugs you get with a swap are little ones.
I put a 350 in a 1948 International and been chaseing bugs for two weeks, so hang in there it will all come together in thr end.

well guys i have to sell the monte. my dog i got for christmas last year back hips collapsed. he has hip displasia bad. right side a little bit of socket and left side none at all. breaks my heart either way but i am glad to have the car to help my friend out.

Sorry to hear this! But maybe someday another project will come into your life and no matter, you can still hang out with us right?!?!

of course. will never leave you guys. this is my second family

Sorry to hear about your pet...I know how that goes been there and done that.

At rest 1.JPGBarb - pets are part of the family. Cars - nuthin but a lump of replaceable metal and plastic. Do it!! Heck, if need be, even my '31 would go down the road for Callie - who has daily eye drops from a thyroid reaction to Front Line Flea and Tick stuff

Sorry about your dog, Barb. Steve (Stovens) recommended some glucosimine for daily maintenance of Pepper's back problems, seems to really help him!

Sorry Barb. I hope the your dog gets better after surgery. Sorry about the Monty too. I know you love the car! I've sold many in my life to take care of the truely important things in life, still hard to do, but a dog or cat are like children, most of us would do anything to help them.

i have him on glucosamine. been on it about 6 months because he was growing so fast. got the liquid form for horses from a feed store. it worked great. last night he got his leg hung up in my desk chair and before i could get up to help him he collapsed. got him a doggie wheel chair today. makes it alot easier for me to get him in and out the house for breaks. he seems a little better today as he is flexing his legs when he is laying down so my hopes are better. will know alot more tomorrow after he goes to the doc. thanks guys for making me feel better about all this. it has been a tremendous help.
