*Small update*

Tranny came in a couple weeks ago, took it apart at work, ordered new seal kit, clutches, bans, cheetah manual reverse valve body. Putting it together this weekend. When I get the dyno numbers from my engine I am going to order a custom converter.





Scuffed up the cluster and layed out the gauges on paper



Front brake came in, will put them on when the front suspension is buttoned up.

Very cool- good choice on body style- hopefully it will sit low like the rendering- makes it look tough with the black details-Chris

*SMALL UPDATE*

Just showing some progress. Engine is just waiting on the camshaft and rocker arms and it should be done in a couple weeks. Will post pics of that if soon. Did a heck of alot of painting. Painted all the inner wheel wells and lower front control arms, I am going to wait until I get the old upper ball joints out until I paint the upper control arms. Cleaned up and painted some of the engine bay.

Old Engine Bay


Newly cleaned up and painted engine bay


If your wondering why I painted black so far up the inner fenders is because the red paint on the other side you can't see was chipped and looked really bad and I wanted to cover that up so I had to paint that high up to cover it, and had to match the other side. I didn't want to paint the whole engine bay black and I have no idea what the paint code is to repaint the whole thing red.

I stopped in at the machine shop today and snapped a quick pic of my engine with my phone, just waiting on rocker arms and maybe pushrods.
