Update... engine bay and underside of hood are resprayed. Front end parts are ready for new wear items once the orders arrive. HVAC box is all done. Just a few things to clean and paint and the front end and driveline go back in... pics to follow.

PS I lost my transmission mount so if any readers have one let me know or reply to my “wanted” add...


Edit- found it...

OK - newest pics - Painted engine bay, blacked out grille area. Front end and brakes/lines are done. Transmission, brake lines, and driveshaft assembly is back in. Heater box is back in... Next up is the restored booster and master, and various wire harnesses and misc before the engine goes back in. She's getting there...

Engine's back in place, getting things buttoned up under the hood (still awaiting a few trinkets), and putting the hood back on - then it's on to the interior and body/paint.

Latest update... I drove her for the first time Friday! Pretty sure its been at least 40 years since it was on the road, given no inspection stickers of any kind on it. Runs great, shifts well, floats like she should. Next steps are interior, then the body/paint.

 

[moper]

Engine bay as it is now. Still waiting on a few other minor things but it's looking a bit better than it did...lol

 

[pomonamissel]
