Thank you Rick, I just wish I could have made the front struts work is all. Other then that it's coming together real nice and i'm ready to get the interior done now.

Able to do all this work goes to learning from people on here and the great guys like Hollywood Jim, Mark D Jones, Bob Wix and Tom Nungester and others from the GSL show. I'm not sure if I would be able to do this or even be pushed to do stuff like this if it was not for there input and help.

Thank you all.

The motor is now in 'Runt" all hooked up with fuel lines and ac lines ran to the firewall, Top and bottom water hose on and last the vavle cover breather box in place with the lines ran. Also you can see the new vavle covers I put on that are smooth on top and put in the acorn nuts in the top of them. The AC and fuel lines are hard line sold that I ran a file over it and then painted dull black and then use a black marker over the braided line so some of the silver will show through with the black wash look. Once I put the intake tube on you will not see a lot of the hoses as this part covers up the top half of the left side.

Here you can see the clutch and brake resevior, Then we start to see up the frame in the front. With every thing in the front tied down just put the front wheels on to see how the stance is before doing the rear end.
