Motor mounts for a SBF are quite easy as they are a flat plate. I would have preferred to have some flexible motor mounts but with limited clearance under the cowl I have chosen solids for the engine.

I haven’t forgot about the threads that I post. I have been busy with a rather large project at home that has been consuming my time and limiting my access to the car, or at least where I am building the car. (Guesses are welcome)
The project is currently outside and waiting to be restarted, but I still have many posts to get us through the winter. My modus operandi has been to post an update as I develop new ones. That allows me to make sure our -40 winters up here still have something that makes life worth living.
While I do plan on having more time to work on the car before the real cold sets in, that may not happen. Ultimately, we will start our winter postings when the snow starts to fall and looks like it is here to stay for a while.

OK its been about 2 months since my last post but I have a good reason. Its just when I say it out loud it doesn't sound as good?
I have been rolling quite hard on building a new shop to work out of and even with a lot of stuff for you to see in the bank I always had an excuse.
Well the local inspector has shut me down until I get better at acquiring proper permits. BUT, I did actually do some work on the car today and I like to trade a post now for one that you will see in the future.
This is just words but I am posting pics and text right away!
I hope there are still some out there that want to see them.

Needed the wires gone so I could continue with more work on the car. I didn’t lose any blood and I don’t have any deep lacerations so we can call that a good day then!

We are doing the last of the body positioning details so we can remove the body from the frame. This will make running all the lines and new wiring harnesses much easier. It isn’t just a matter of removing the body because we could do that at any time. The important part is to make sure it can go back in the same position.

Decided that today was the day that the car would get out for a ride. That ride would just be on a trailer but a ride nonetheless. Backing the trailer in and running the ramps under the car but trying to catch the edge of the jig was an adventure.
