We are looking to switch out the MT-82 getrag trans for a tremec t-56 magnum now. Once we find a trans we will begin mocking the motor up!

Finnished up the trunk area. no pics yet. seam sealed and will be appoxy painting wednesday. Then putting the car on the ground again and rolling it up to the front of the garage where its heated and putting one of the other cars in the back. Still looking for a trans and that is what is holding us back right now.
