Things are already getting better. It just works so well with Ken's posts and everyone's great observations from this site. The step by step workmanship of this car makes me check in everyday. Ken could sell advertising to go along with the progress.

Today's projects were to put Gas in the tank and get the fuel pump working, pressurize the system and check for leaks before putting the body on.....Got it powered up and found out immediately that tight is not tight at 60psi....Tightened everything again.....and got all the leaks taken care of......Glad I did that before the body was on........







I also got the exhaust system installed, just need to finish the ends of the tailpipes after the body is on to final fit....



Also.......It was hard enough learning about all the #'s "Stuff"......Now.....I gotta learn about this Computer Crap........Picked up my O2 sensors (Computer talk) today....You Numbers guy's and Muscle car guy's out there might not know what a oxygen sensors are......LOL.....

WOW, look at this guy; he even has a <font color="blue">Blue</font> toolbox to match the car!




Oxygen sensor? Is that what Howie has in his bathroom?

Before we get started today I have to say one thing to a couple of members here that are Bashing this thread.....#1 I'm not building a "Riddler" award car, #2...If you don't like it, don't visit this thread, #3....Go bolt together your store bought parts......With that said......Spent the day getting the wiring and vacuum lines straightened out and finished up and I also picked up the body and rear fenders........



Vacuum line running down to the Brake Booster



O2 Sensor Installed...........



Picking up the Body and Fenders with the 1 pc windshield installed.........The Jury is still out on the windshield as they have a slight distortion in them......If it bothers me I'll take it out and put in "V" butted flat glass...







Ken
