Thanks street!
Been a while since I've updated this, and, thankfully, we've managed to get a lot done, and got to take it to the track and play the weekend before last.
Some of the highlights:
Dash-mounted shift light continues the interior mods
Got everything wrapped up under the hood, including new manual Wilwood master cylinder and adjustable prop. valve for the new rear discs
Took it to a 'Run-what-ya-brung' drag race held at an air strip. Had a lot of fun doing 1/8th mile burnouts on the old asphalt - and thankfully didn't break the 12 bolt rear
WWII era asphalt isn't kind
Took advantage of the long Thanksgiving weekend to perform surgery yet again
Got the exhaust painted, and did some clearancing on the trans crossmember to tuck it up nice and neat
9" with 4.10s and Yukon locker nestled into its new home
Made peace with multiple deities, then trimmed the lip on both sides to fit 28x10.5s
..which was totally worth the stress
Annnnnd finally, took it to the track and flogged it - managed a 7.749 at 86 mph
It took a year but we're finally back on the schedule we wanted to be
