Again just keeping everyone up to date on the progress. All the misc parts from around the country have been gathered together and I will be flying out to DC on the 25 finish up the transmission, engine, and suspension work. The only part we are waiting on is the engine. Richard promised it by the 15th of July but I assume he got to busy to meet his deadline. I am sure he has a good reason though and I am sure it will be finished by the 25th. If not we can finish the suspension and the transmission will have to wait. If thats the case though I will get you some more great shots like this:

yup...its all jb-welded up...no leaks...however all that torque that was placed on the oil pan has created a leak somewhere...I can't find it yet but its definitely leaking...its a small leak and it never dribbles on the floor so I'm not worried...the car runs fine and thats all I care...

and Charles, I'm sure I can learn...smile.gif
