Cleaned up wiring after moving battery to trunk, new gauge decals installed, fixed broken grill pieces and refInishing the paint now. Hopefully by next week the grill will be fInished and on to more parts.  Preparing for a re-spray and then swap the rear!  :cheers:

Put a new clock in the dash
Traded the mechanical voltage limiter for a solid state
Front brake job (new shoes, hoses, wheel cylinder...what a beating)

Mostly just drive it

Replaced the carb, valve covers, MSD distributor, wires and spark plugs, repaired various cracked wires and terminals at the alternator, removed the headers and installed manifolds, and replaced the idler arm.

A radiator/block flush and fresh coolant will be done this evening, and if I can find the threaded holes behind the headliner, I'll install the three point seat belts.

Ripped it apart and sent it away to get the bodywork and paint done on memorial day week. Left here on fathers day, hope to have it back for re-assembly before columbus day. It won't go back together as fast as it came apart.

Parked it by the lift...so that one of these days, it can be lifted and be torn apart and put together again, with some new metal. And have the front end be rebuilt.
