She's almost Complete. Throw out bearing went bad. Pulled the motor Friday afternoon and had it back in and ready to fire by Midnight. Worked out a bunch of bugs on Saturday including a run in with the ground and the header. Damn Roadwork!!! Pulled one of the J tubes out and had to drive it home and Fixed it yesterday. I took a quick picture and I will have more to come in the next few weeks for everyone!!!!

Thanks Sean Boy.
Teufeltito I am running the Jer Fab spring plates 4" drop and lowered one notch so I think the problem is the amount of suspension travel I have. I guess we pay to play and look sweet.
Just waiting on new main and idle jets to come for my Kadrons and I'll be in business. Then I'm sure I find something else to do. Laughing
I'm just ready to drive the heck out of her!!!!

Thanks so Much Sean Boy. How's you're car doing??? I'm going to start another thread. I picked up a 59 pan that I'm going to tear down and start another car to add to my collection. I may have made Euro Tuner Magazine in the next month or so, but we'll see.

That motor would be nasty man. I am picking up a 2110 here soon hopefully. Not sure if I'll put it in my car or the new one that I'm going to build. we'll see. I'm hopefully going to do the interior her in the next few months. Keep an eye out. Color change here we come. Laughing

Shocked Wow...very nice! It looked good before, but the wheels made a huge difference. Well done, sir.

I think if you raised the back up... it'd look way cooler with those wheels on the same horizontal plane.. Those 17" wheels do look awesome.. I'll admit it..
