Close...yet far away

I'm close to getting the car running, yet it seems like its years away. I have the suspension completely torn down, the rear end pulled out, and the K-member cleaned and painted. My dad and I spend a couple of hours one night cleaning the engine bay with this purple castrol stuff; its hecka nasty stuff. One of my uncles very kindly offered to take my spindles and A-arms to his work to have them bead-blasted for me; thats a couple of hours I don't have to spend grinding them with a wire wheel. lol. We finally pulled the trailer out of the back and put the LT1 on the engine stand, again from my uncle, and put the T-56 on our old Radio-Flyer wagon...I love that thing :D.

Another uncle of mine in So Cal owns a speed shop and is going to be supplying the majority of my parts; I'm really excited!
