This car has been in my family a little over six years. I started gathering parts in October of 2010. I pulled the driveline last year starting in April. If I can make my October deadline, that will put me at two years. I originally intended it to only be down for six months. Very overzealous on my part.

Spent the day making phone calls and waiting on phone calls. Now we just have to make arrangements to have my car taken to the trans shop.

I went out first thing this morning and started prepping, masking, etc. Then squirted on a coat of primer. I still have to lay under it and eat dirt while I clean the bottom of the frame rails. But, the top and side are pretty much done and ready for paint.

Going to look great when you get it painted. All the hard work will pay off.

Just spent a few minutes after work installing my lifters. Damn it's hot out there! The weather app on my phone says, "real feel - 111*"
 It is looking like I will have my pushrods later today, but the poly locks are another story. Those may not show until Monday, which would keep me from running the valves this weekend. I have plenty to keep me busy, but was really hoping to have all of the parts by Saturday.
