Got my tranny 99% finished. IPM calls out for a washer under the castellated nut on the output. Mine did not have one so tomorrow I'll make a NAPA run and get that and some lube. Then bolt the top down. Leaving the jack shaft off until I can get the engine mostly finished. Got my LDS rockers...

Very nice!

Burt got 2 more brake lights and new mud flaps. Flaps are too short per DOT here so I’m making some extensions from the old ones, eventually.

Deja 'vu all over again. This time for adjusting the caster.

Installed back up lights and horn. Manually controlled

But why didn't you paint BOTH sides?

Love those wide-open spaces.

And the winner is!

Yep they both got bigger before they got smaller! I did end up welding a patch over the large hole after I removed some of the rusted this metal. That was a new experience for me. Trying to make a patch from 16ga with a double curve. Got both done with decent welds. Almost getting good at...

Since I figured out my brake issue (separate thread) of one wheel being way out of adjustment and it's too cold to address I decided to work on the interior. Pulled the seats to rework. OMG that spring seat is heavy! Found some cracks in the frame and generally in good shape but very dirty...

Just a thought. While I had my radiator out not only did I take it to a radiator shop for cleaning, I removed the studs and are replacing them with bolts to make R&R easier in the future. If you do this be SURE to measure carefully as there is a small pad in the bottom of the hole to protect the...

Here's my "shop".

A shop, heater, doors AND a lift?!?!?! That Pixxes me off. Haha

Sorry to hear. How long ago did you get the vaccine? Moderna?

Decided to address my leaking LH mid tire. I learned on the front end R&R is easier if you pull the hub. So I did. Uh oh..another project. I mean it poured out. Can't wait to see what the bearings look like.

She looks comfy. Wish my garage was that clean!

Pretty cool. What struts did you use?
