Started working on the race car today,pulled engine to see how bad the left rail and K member were.Rail isnt straight but pretty sure I can get it back into shape.Probably will have to make another K member.Why is it when you have time to work on something you dont have the money.Still looking for quarter panel locally.Dont think I am even going to look inside 400 plus passes motor,hell it was running fine when wrecked and we know I have been gentle on it. :D .Mark

Mark this I can relate to :lol:
"Why is it when you have time to work on something you dont have the money."
You need to be closer to my age (physicaly Not mentaly after all I have 50 years experience of being 24).
Best of luck my friend on the rebuild of the car.

Money? What is that? Try having two teens - one in college! You will get it done Mark. With your level of craftsmanship it will look better than new!

you can do it..

with that much stuff needing attention, it is a perfect time to make your machine better...

That's what I did when ruster ate up an oil pump gear.. I have the whole car apart for lightening and re designing.
