I will put the engine in eventually. Once I pull the engne I will also need to replace the radiator (~$600-$700). I just want to get it on the road with the current engine for now.
As for what's behind the curtains!

Yep, this car has been one of my favorite projects since you first mentioned you were trying to score it a while back. Going to really enjoy seeing the improvements made and to see it run again. I think the right guy got this one and will give it the respect it deserves.

Finally got the spring shackles and bushings in. Ordered them from Macs Auto took 2 weeks to get them. They have nice stuff but really slow shipping!
It looks like it dropped it about 3". It now has a nice slight rake to it.
I also got some Red's Headers Very nice quality stuff. The old ones I had just weren't going to work with the stock chassis and steering.
