Ok, sold the bike and now I am working on the truck. Weather is starting to get a little warmer here, so I should start making some progress soon. Take a look at what I scored below. I have wanted one of these forever!

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

I finally got my daily driver situation straightened out. So, back to work. Today I got the connecting rod torqued back in, got the head back on, installed the pushrods/roller rockers. I am shooting for a week or two(I know I work slow!) to have this fired back up. Even after I get the top end on, I need to reinstall the oil pan, steering rack and flush the system.

Well, if my chassis can sell, I think I am calling it quits. See chassis post in for sale section.

If I sell the chassis, I will no longer have anything to build. After I sell all the parts, I don't think I could/would do it again. This is the second time.

I don't think there will be another one. The one I sold many years ago is the one I was attached to. I had it for almost 12yrs and was my DD for at least half the time.
