    You know I was teasing right! I couldn't resist after you and PaceCar79 were back and forth on who should post the pictures!

    Looks like the car is really coming together! Good Luck with your parts search, finishing the car, and work!

    No worries Trey.. I figured you just needed a nap. It's getting there, but little parts are becoming a chore without a big budget etc.

    Got a neede day off thanks to Isaac!

    Are you implying that I am grumpy!

    Have you been talking to Matt (Onetrackrider) again!

    It's all good, just poking a little fun at you!

    Good Luck!

    OK, Got the front end finished up. Pedals, clutch cable, quad and firewall adjuster are all in. Front brake lines, booster, master cylinder are all in and run. New speedo cable installed, Steering is done. Rear is pulled apart for the gear install and seals, will be in wen. Wiring should be ironed out by Friday hopefully, Motor going in this weekend I hope.

    These pedals work a little better?

    Note: for 5 spd swaps you'll have to change your auto/srod pedals to later 83-93 pedals. Srod cars use a different cable and no quadrant.

    I need to do some encapsulating on the under carriage and fender wells, but I also have some liners. Lots of details to button up over time.
