That's nice there's still stuff that old in yards near you. Nice work on the headers too! That has to be great to be able to steer it again!Ryan

Thanks, all. Dave, you busted me; I just picked up a 2.2 Dodge engine for an idea I've had for a long time. I want to build a tube chassis reverse trike using a front wheel drive drivetrain. But that's a story for another thread......
I got my radiator and trans cooler in along with several little jobs like starter, dipstick, torque coverter bolts. Also swapped out the valvecovers; I like these much better. The guy that painted the car for me is coming over Sunday to shoot the hood and my next task is to get the fuel system plumbed.1 Corinthians 1:27

Sure! After a fuel system, wiring, radiator hoses, fan, exhaust, gauges, brakes, tires, and some seats she'll be ready for a test run!1 Corinthians 1:27

Heck, you may decide you want to change the colour by then....I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

Heck, no!! I couldn't take another 5 year paint job! Actually, it shouldn't take all that long compared to how long it took to get to this spot. I'm hoping it will run/move/stop under its own power by years end. Then she and I can order glass & rubber and star sewing up our first interior. (This should be a challenge!)1 Corinthians 1:27

Got my fenderwells finished and painted today. I'm also building brackets to relocate the coils off of the valve covers and onto the fenderwells.1 Corinthians 1:27
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
