Man...

I need a job so I can move someplace with a garage. That way I can get my '67 project underway.

So what all have you accomplished since I helped you finish up that rear suspension?

[patgizz]

lots. steering column is mounted, steering shaft is made, column shifter is hooked up, the plate for the firewall for the brake pedal setup is made just need to drill it for the booster and pedal. pedal and mount are made. gas pedal will be installed as soon as the brake pedal is in and located. then i can finish ripping out the stock wiring harness and install the new.

Love the dash. Also like the covers on the motor, those flames are awesome.
