Cool. Well hopefully these parts will get your vert ready for the spring road trips! The rotors, calipers and lines really are nearly new.

Yeah, it is getting a little ridiculous. I think I am done for a while once all this goes on/in. I updated my spreadsheet tracking my expenses and decided I have gone far enough with this thing. But really, there isn't much else I wanted to do with the car as a whole. I am sure there will be little projects that will continue but the major items should be behind me now. Paint/Body work done, New floor pans, replaced all the interior, swapped to an SS Dash, 12 Bolt swap, OD Transmission, Big Block, Working A/C, larger wheels; all complete.

They are money pits and never done ,at least thats how mine are. My problem is I ran out of money with too many cars.

Quoted for fact. I do believe I am going to try and market my Camaro SS this year so I can have one less vehicle to contend with.

Good luck with your sale! It is an iffy market. Quality cars seem to bring decent money as always but everything else seems to be very hit or miss. I've seen some pretty decent looking cars advertised for quite a while lately.

Pulled up the tracking numbers and the remaining 3 parts will be delivered on Tuesday so the motor build should begin very soon!

Haven't really done anything else to the car but I did take it off the jack stands today for the first time since this build began. I love the rear wheels and they look like they will clear just fine (but I'll need to do some *spirited* driving to put a load on the rear suspension to see if I have any rubs.)

Hopefully will post some build updates with more things going together pretty soon!
