I am looking forward to the picture of you driving it out of the garage under its own power for the first time - and the grin on your face when you do it! :)

I'm not sure that's true, as long as they're not repetitive, some choice shots are always appreciated (brake set-up, the dash, transmission, and all like that).

Ha, ha, ha! :)

I have a "good running takeout engine" that was just going to be swapped in. It ended up being a rebuild (old crank but new bearings rings, etc.). Nothing like your car manufacturing. These projects have a life of their own.

All at home...



With the help of some friends... :)
