That's a big price cut. Were those rod ends for the linkage that you picked up?

Got my "full flow" oil pump from CB the other day. Alsp got my high pressure oil cooler hose for the lines to the filter. Gotta get the pump set up to go in and I can get the motor buttoned up so I canget it over to Dave Ts place to fire it up. Hopefully in the next week or so. I am really nervous to start it. Im gonna be a wreck when it comes time to hit the button to start it!

Got the oil pump installed, exhaust installed, crank pulley installed, just waiting on the fittings for the oil lines, my new oil filter adapter (eith the outlets going the correct way) and some o rings for the valve cover bolts and it will be ready! Oh, i also have to figure out why the alternator and crank pulley dont line up......I think its just the shroud being on crooked. Soon!!!!!!!

All wiring has been removed and is currently being replaced by new stuff with an actual fuse panel. Roof rack has been painted and bolted on. Hopefully it will be back to my house very soon.

Good choice in starting fresh with the wiring. When in doubt, rip it out!

ITS HOME!!!!!!! Got it back a few days ago. Wheels have been taken off and blasted for a repaint in white. The glass guy is coming this week to measure for the new windsheild. Its coming along. Hopefully I can get some work done on it tonight. I need to re do all the brake and clutch lines and get all that working correctly again. I have not put the engine back im yet. I am waiting untill it comes back from the glass shop and wont have to leave my place again.
