    Well, i think i can make it to the pile up with her, well just see how it goes, im not gonna kill myself to make it i just kinda like having goals to get my *** moving.

    well i havent posted any pics of it lately but, i got one header done, (man i thoght 10ft of pipe was enough for both side.....i was wrong, i have about 9 ft in one side alone!)

    got the ansen pedals in,

    got a 65 chev column and wheel in

    got the shock mounts/headlight mounts made,

    got the radiator mounted up (mock up rad, now i have to fit the one thats gonna actually go in the car.

    got front tires for it finally.

    basically after the other headers done, and finishing the rear suspension all i have to do is sheet metal work, then blast it apart for final welding and rund brake and fuel lines and wiring.

    Jeff. It's coming along nicely. Got a snowmobile suit to wear on the drive to the Hunnert and back? It could be really cold in mid-October. You wouldn't have a pair of 5 on 5 wheels with tires to sell. I need to get a Chevy van to the crusher.

    That car looks really good. The header looks real slick, I like it.
    Looks like you're in about the same place I am with my coupe. I've got it apart and painted the frame, but much of the same stuff left to do...including building headers - which I'm not really looking forward to.:D
    See you at HCPU! (I hope)
