She's got glass and steering. Unfortunately, she's also got two junk driveshafts. 2 steps forward, one step back.....

Looks like a good time to call Garage Squad and let them finish. They specialize in 'abandoned neglected' vehicles with new paint jobs lol. They will likely deflate a tire or two for authenticity before they start shooting

I haven't updated in a while.... Spent all day in the garage today. I have all the brakes replaced and the system bled. Clutch assembly is back together, fuel tank in, filler neck and hose, sending unit, etc. Going to run the fuel line this week and it's just about time to fire it up again. Seats are the final piece of the puzzle.. I think my rear wheel bearings are toast, they sound like sand. No Bueno.

It should be running on the property by Memorial day, but I doubt it will be registered and on the road by then. I'm going to miss that deadline, but not by much. It's almost done!

Glad to hear you're still at it, looking forward to some pics out in the sun!

Supposed to have my lubr back by 4th of July, it's killing me

I've been at it, just don't post about it much. Most of my posts are in tech absorbing all the knowledge here.
