If it was junk, why is it hanging on the garage wall in the last picture? Looking great Bill!

Good eye Jason. I forgot it was still there. Maybe I will make a frame/display, and hang it on the wall as a reminder of just what I started with last fall.

It's alive!! Got that solid lifter big block fired last week. Had a problem with trans noise. Had to pull it out, and send it back to the trans builder. Problem solved. The trans is back behind the engine, and sounds fine. The car is basically finished. Still needs some tuning, and the side stripe. I'm hoping to get them done this week.
Over all, the project was about what I expected. I finished it up a few months ahead of schedule. I was shooting for May. Thanks for all the support throughout the year. I'm gonna take a break for a few months, and relax.
