Default Dug out Beater time to work...

Dug beater out after a 365 rest and went over it tonight to try and remeber where I left off, Seems as the kids get older it gets harder to find the time for my personal needs... Actually looks good I had bolted the car back togeather at last point to make sure it all fits, Only a few minor things to go over it seems and take it back apart for paint..

well the old car found it right back in the corner.. for another year and a half, I took the cover off and decided I better get off my rear and put it togeather so a $2000.00 parts order later and digging the thing out im back on track, the old 6 banger is going to be driving this summer. I have the engine ready to drop in and welded up the shifter hole, I took it to my work shop and lifted it to detail the bottom when im finished with that the engine is going in. Figured I would get the engine and trans in then paint it body work is finished ready for final block.







Cool fuel block



My youngest checking it out

I got some more time in the last couple weeks the bottom is as clean as im going to get it for a driver, I replaced the brake lines and painted the bottom I sprayed undercoat in areas it was before, and installed the engine, I have been doing alot of cleaning and wiping down amazing how dirty things got just sitting..



Dirty from sitting, and me spraying down the floors in my toy box.. made a mess of things
