any more progress to report

Sun Sep 25, 2011 6:40 pm

Ok, so it's been a long time since I had posted any progress so I'll be swift and to the point. I didn't do any work to it for a long time(almost a year) Well, I didn't like how the new dash was going in so I cut the new one out. Again. Hopefully I can find another soon. I'm tired of doing things over and over again. I'm picking up a new luggage tray this week so that should go in fairly well. As long as I don't run into too many hiccups. Pictures and posts to be continued.

WOOOHOOOO progress!!!! So I got a new body in much better shape from the guy I'm workin for now so I moved on down to the pan. Got a W.W. replacement pan half for it and it fit perfectly. Dropped it off at the powder coaters 2 weeks ago and picked it up yesterday all I gotta say is gorgeous. Now to start putting it back together. I figure new trans mounts, e-brake cables, shifter coupler, and bushing and I'll be good to go. Probably use new bolts for the swing arms but I can decide that later on. Anyhow, a picture is worth a thousand words. Will update when I take a picture of the powder coated pan.

Transaxle all cleaned up and pan put back together. Dropping the body back on for yet another move. But here are some pictures of what progress has been made.
