MATS is always a crap shoot for me because I don't have vacation time like I used to.  On the brighter side though, Jeff called today and my housing is done. Brake parts are all here too. Picking the housing up Saturday night. May have time to get a coat of paint on it so it can sit and cure before I put it back in the car.

Gathered more parts. Got the calipers and rotors for the front, smaller slicks, a Fisher damper, another timing chain set, and not one but two new cams. I have officially joined the .600"+ lift club.

While I was at the shop today I checked the front brake parts I got to make sure they are correct. They are. It also appears there will be enough meat in the hubs to get them drilled out to a 4-1/2" pattern.

Got the rear back in the car today and the slicks from Seymour are on. Car definitely looks weird without the wheel wells completely full of tire.

Packages started arriving today. Got a very nice looking 12 circuit fuse box, a handful of relays and harnesses, and about 1000 feet of wire and a terminal kit. Decent looking stuff for the money.

Here's hoping. I am going to the shop in the morning and see if I can get enough stuff out of the way to get it out.
