Back where I started in 1993

Yeah pretty much. The whole front end is taken down to frame and suspension. Reworked the running boards, taking off the home made rubber covers. One running board was a bitch to get off, since I had welded mounting bolts to its topside, mounted the board, then everything else. There was no easy way to remove it!

The new seat has been mounted and is at the upholseterers. Next is the frontend strengthening, and then the new motor can go in. Front fenders will need repainting also due to birds, and errors in the initial prep before the first painting.

Along the way I would like to determine once and for all if I can set the clutch up to be hydraulic. Also picked up a new 7 in. brake booster and may match it to a corvette type MC (could sell it too). The aluminum radiator is still an objective.

It doesnt ever end. I hope .
