Starting to Snowball.....

Since I didn't have heat in the garage I started to accumulate parts for the Spring...
New carbs and pipe front exhaust...
New steering wheel and boss....
5 spd. kit...
etc...
etc...

Now I've got the carbs ready to go and need to notch the body, but since I have to pull the engine I guess I should paint the engine compartment, and while the radiators out I should paint it and the fill tank, might as well do the heater box, oops - might as well degrease and do the engine, sure I'm forgetting something...

Have spent in the last 5 months almost twice as much as I paid for the car......

Oh well, gonna stop on the way home and pickup an engine hoist and sandblast cabinet...

I'm not complaining, but this one I was gonna drive while I worked on the other one...
At least the trans looks good.
