This is a side job so he gets to it when he can. He has about 32 hours so far. Some of the real dirty stuff I'll do such can cleaning the trunk floor and sanding down the top. The hours will go up as soon as he starts replacing the quarters and trunk extensions. I've done the disassembly and will do the re-assembly.

Update. Have all the motor parts together, awaiting the new camshaft, lifters and springs. Got the block and heads back from shot blasting. Fortunately I won't have to bore the block. The bores will clean up nicely
Cool deal it's good to get a break now and then. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beer.gif)
Did the quarters get hung?

Are your plans to remove the half tub or do a patch to the current tubs? A lot of cutting to get rid of the lip rust. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/weld.gif)
