I'll give you an update if you give me one.

I spoke to my painter last night. He said that he would probably be ready to paint next week. Meanwhile, I have been trying to get the garage ready for when it gets back. I still had the old MCyl and brake lines sitting on some plastic. I was going to buy new brake lines but mine were in good shape other than being nasty. So, I decided to try and clean them and see how they would turn out. I did a little test and was happy with the results so I'm going to re-use them. I'll try to finish cleaning them this week and finish organizing the garage.




So what did you do to get em brake lines that clean? i need to do the same with mine!

Sorry about not updating in a while. We are currently going through another round of trying to wean our daughter from her feeding tube and I have been pretty busy with that. BUT, the car is finally painted so here goes some pics.

Another.

Also, for those that are curious about the black inner firewall. I know that it is not correct but I have always HATED seeing color show under the dash above the carpet. Call me crazy, just a little quirk of mine. If the car was a real T/A, I'd do it like factory. Since it isn't, I did it myway.

I finally got the K-frame on the dolly and started staging the engine and drivetrain for reassembly. Thanks again to Finoke for the Motor Mount Bracket so I begin getting it together.

Looks good and I agree with you on the inner firewall. It bugs me seeing bright coloured paint there.

Thank you guys.

Devin, I would love to have it going by end of summer at least. The nice thing is that I restored most of the pieces as I took them off or during downtime. There is very little that is not restored. I'm going to do as much as I can on it in my spare time and see how it goes. I have tried to develop more patience with this project than I have in the past. I'm anxious to start putting it together but want to make sure that I don't mess something up in the process because of rushing.
