Just got in and it's after 11pm. Started working on the car around 1pm today. Here's the progress we made today. Hit a couple of snags, one I'm missing a rod that connects the reverse lock out to the steering column and the frame bracket. I'm also need to replace the clutch pedal rod between the pedal and the Z Bar. Hoping I can find what I need tomorrow. If I had the wiring harness I need and the parts above this car would be running tomorrow. I have to say thank you to may friend who is letting use his shop the next few days.

Finally had time and agreeable weather to finish stripping the last control arm. I shot some primer on it and called it a day. I am off Sunday, weather permitting - I'll lightly sand it and shoot some paint on it. I still have over half of the front frame and cross member to strip, primer, and paint. Plus the spindles, steering arms, and calipers. I am worn out just thinking about it.

Got the control arm painted yesterday, will be painting the cross shaft and some other small parts today. I need to place another order to Eastwood. I am really liking the chassis black, hard to believe it lays down so smooth, and gives that kind of finish - from an aerosol can!

No new news to report, still waiting on an engine harness and a few small parts so I can finish getting the car running.

Managed to get out there early this morning before meeting my folks for lunch.

Installed an HEI rev limiter module today so I hopefully prevent any accidental over-revs.
Messed with the front & rear shock adjustments to get a little better ride quality for the street. Then went out and drove it!
