Hot Rods Finally!! The 40 is back on all 4's again

I haven't been on here much in the last few months, been busy with 2 jobs and life in general. I took the rear end out of the 40 right after I got back from Lone Star last year and sent it out for a set of 3.54 gears and between work, problems with the new gears and life, nothing has been touched since then. Well today One of my HAMB friends, Doug, came over and helped get it back on the ground again. Well at least its rolling again! Tomorrow he is coming over to get started swaping the new Merc Motor!!! Should have it back on the road in a couple of days. Going to try to drive it to LSR again this year if I can find the time. It also has a new 1" lower rear stance




New Motor

 

Oooh, chromed brake drums just laying around.. ..or are they polished Buicks?

Are you the guy who traded the 40 off and then got it back? I think I got it right.

Nice car...a little low for my roads, but it looks good.
