Engine is in, headers are on, Car In Tow on back window (as most cars back then were flat towed).  As was my 1953 Olds stocker.  Only 1 of my gelly roll pens worked.  If I had a do over, I would have painted it on with white paint.  Getting closer to the finish line.

Tried out some double sided tape for the trunk handle.  Works okay, easier than pinning, not as strong, of course.  Put rear bumper on.  Got to extend the driveshaft.

“Hooking up “ the driveshaft after arriving at the track.  Will post some more finished pics in the “under glass” section.  Also, the “rest of the story”.
