Mike at Muscle Rodz ordered a set of RECARO Specialist's for me. I went with the leather covered ones and like he said they are 4-6 weeks out. Won't be able to install them for a few so the wait isn't a big deal.

Easy!? I'm good and punching my C.C. number into the computer and hitting send. I've got great people helping me and that's what's making things move along at a steady pace. There will be some slow periods, but that's to be expected.

Got a stack of parts Monday. Thanks for all the help getting the right stuff the first time!

Engine looking good. Looking forward to when you can post a video clip of it at startup and idling. The valve cover's look as good as the ones Holley is selling for nearly $200, so good for the budget.

Great progress to date. Waiting for the next chapter in the saga.

Me too!!! Yeah that one was lucky. I expect more though.

Can't wait to hear it fire and run for the first time. I was hoping to have it done by Christmas, but we are talking about paint now rather than later. That means 6 months minimum, before I'll have the car back and will be able to start putting it back together. Trying to pick a color for the car is driving me nuts. Everything looks good, but nothing seems right. Ugh. I'll do my best to keep some kind of update going.
