Now THAT would've been a helluva better spring compressor to use than the inside-type that I got from AZ.  How much did that thing cost?

I borrowed it from kitz.. It looks expensive though.
It also weighs a ton. Looks like something he uses on dump trucks.

This thread makes me sick with all the work you are doing in such short time. I would be in retirement before I got all that done. Good job!

That's looking real good. That one pic of the engine bay, looks like the steering shaft (its in that area) seems a little rusty...now with all that work your not going to let a little rusty thing inside your engine bay are ya? :)
