Probably nothing that hasn't been posted here at some point in the past, but since I don't feel like digging around for pics in old posts...

I wanted the entire grill blacked out, but Mike thought the bright trim still looked decent enough that he put it back on. I think the red stripe was from the factory... I may go "full black" anyways, if I don't want to look at the "fish mouth" grill any longer.


No idea. Mine had the rust hole in the frame when I bought it, but I'm pretty sure the cracks developed during the time I've owned it. I figure that every time it came off the line w/ the front wheels jerked 4-6 inches in the air that there was some stress being applied around the front suspension, etc.

Lookin good Brad! I also found a crack on the front driver's side frame rail of my cuda. Near the front K frame bolt. Welded a patch over it and no more problems...been that way since the car was running in the 10s, so 2003 or so?

Love the scoop.

Yep. He told me today his work will be done by the weekend, so the car should be returning to La Casa de Chaos soon.

Now it's up to me -- again -- to make sure things keep moving in the right direction.

Did you put the fuel pump inside the tank with the new setup? I think tanks with internal pumps are a bolt in deal for E body cars now.

Just looking at the Holley EFI Tank page the other day. Nearly everything but the early B's now. Here's the E body tank.

Naah... had purchased a standard replacement tank and a spare Mallory 140 pump quite a ways back... simpler & cheaper to do a basic parts swap at this point.

Mike's work is done and the MoRust -- uh... MoPig -- is back home.

Car-side of garage is cleaned up; work-side of garage still needs some attention before I start wrenching again.

These semi-crappy pics don't look much different than what's been posted before, but they're as of Sunday afternoon once the car came back.

Another few good looks at that big ugly mother-effing scoop, too.

The project will continue...
