I was going to go to a local cruise...til I got a call from my sister to bring the kids and come on over and go swimming. She works a lot of hours, she is a respiratory therapist at a hospital and teaches college classes, and the fact that it was 90 degrees and the kids were driving me crazy, I decided to take them to her place. Hopefully the weather will cooperate tomorrow.

One week to go before our car show next Saturday. Got the hood on, console in, some wiring issues figured out and will finish up the cowl induction hook up tomorrow. Also put the hood pins in today. Still have a carb problem and may not get solved until friday when it go into the carb shop. Windows go in on Wednesday. I also now have two empty bedrooms that use to have parts stored in them.










Had some help from a friend most of the day.

Ray, your car is beautiful and I just love shadow gray and the white interior is just a plus. How much would it take for you to sell it? Because I'll always be interested. Are those the original color combos btw?

i spent some time in the garage today not done but i laid out the new fuel line since i didnt want to remove the frame from the body (since i dont know how


not clamped in but layed out

i should of taken pictures of the before but the exhaust was all jacked up! so i cut the funky looking sleeves that he had on it. put the inserts so it can bolt to the headers then the back half of the muffler was cut really bad so i made a nice clean cut and the tail pipe was cleaned up pretty nice. then as i was working on it i noticed 4 holes in the exhaust system. so i welded it and ground it nice so it can look pretty for everyone that i run over..lol

Looking good. Lifting the body you have to take the body bolts loose in the frame about 4 on each side depending on the year. Probably better you leave them because if you spin a cage bolt it would be a lot more work to fix it.
