Still waiting on my fuel pump back from Fred Ballard so I can finish the re-assembly of the front of the engine and fire it up. Also waiting on the rear cylinders from Karp's to complete the brakes, will install a new rubber line on the rear to the distribution block as well. It's been and enjoyable project as I am not on a hard deadline and have the space - but hope to have it complete soon to be able to enjoy the summer season. Will post more as I make more progress - thanks for following along.

Nice updates
Are the foam pads hanging by doors there to prevent door dings?

Yes - cheap and effective in tight quarters. I stuff 4 cars in a 3 car garage.

This reminds me a lot of an L34 El Camino project I recently completed. Many of the same restoration vendors too! Nice work!

The two old cars are pretty tight in the winter months - just enough room to open the door on the Regal. In the summer months my truck is outside and we have plenty of room for everything.
