Not a ton of progress. I have been up in the air on whether to paint it or not since I plan to sell it real soon (coming few months). I think a primered car with boxes of chrome trim will turn away some potential buyers. I have a list of things to complete in order to get it ready for paint. Wimbledon White it is.

I did receive hardware for the front and rear suspension. $160 worth of stuff pictured. I hate fasteners with the wrong grip length, so I tend to order AN hardware for most everything I do. Expensive but worth it in my opinion.

I also completed the steering column this evening. I didnt need the column shift any longer, and hated all the uglyness that came through the firewall into the engine bay. I machined bushings from Acetal, to adapt the stock column down to 3/4" steering shaft. I then shortened the entire column so that all of the column itself stays inside the cabin and doesnt go through the firewall. The only part coming through the firewall will be the steering shaft itself.

I should be able to close up the huge factory hole in the firewall and then poke a new small hole in it by the end of the week.
