Have I really gotten bald and fat from doing this line of work? Nah, this car is just lower to the ground than the last one.
Wow, you really did "dig in deep". I bet your getting to know cudas pretty well now.
I noticed no blackout on the radiator support, did cudas get that treatment?
Car is looking great! Great job.

PCV valve, grommets, hose fittings, etc...should have all been painted orange with the engine. The four bolts that hold the transmission cross member to the frame are in backwards

You'll need to get a properly plated throttle cable hold-down and nut also not sure but didn't think the choke assembly was painted. You also need to get body color on the battery tray... Ron
Ron, that choke assembly was the old one. we do have a mint Carter NOS one that will go back on the intake that will remain unpainted. Alan, as usual thanks for your eye for detail. Everyone else thanks for your help as well. Tim, dont sweat the small stuff. This has been learning experience for all of us. Keep up the good work. We are almost there. This delay has given me the perfect amount of time to get alot done on my end.

Sway bar is correct in my books
I agree, I always try to remember this.
It should be frowning and not smiling when it comes to the front sway bar.
