Will do. As soon as I quit spending money on the car and buy a digital camera.

You guys have made me feel better. Almost brought a tear

I just put such much heart and effort into my nonrunnning car.

But, i know the payoff will be worth it.

Yea my story was pretty similar. Last summer I got it by hail. She sat in a body shop for four months. A week after I got it back the coolant seals went south. That was about 7 or 8 months ago. I am just now getting all the little odds and ends done. I did the whole nine as well, nonsequential,street port,fuel pump,m2 rad,m2 ic,flywheel, etc.....

All thats left for me is insurance and tags.

Its been a long *** wait but im glad that im gonna be ready for summer. Hang in there..

Yea, I followed your rebuild Dave. Props on the clean engine pics, and

the fact that you did it yourself. I look forward to seeing some

numbers, (secret ports). I just wanna hear mine run again!
