Ok here you go.  My headers came in, exhaust system and misc. parts for putting the 440 in.  I got the springs a while ago and am finishing that up along witht he frame rail repair. Once done, the fun can begin up front. I am still waiting for probably 3 more visits then I should be golden.  :cooldancing:

Also caught a shot of some copters out and about so thoguth I'd add it for the military folk.

You'll have some fun putting those headers on you 440. You'll need a little convincing to get the driver's side in, but I always liked using a hammer.   :naughty:

I hope to see a big brown truck next week also.  Every time I save enough money to get some parts something else seems to come up--the water heater goes out, the refrigerator breaks ect.--so I got a loan to be able to buy a lot of parts all a once. New tires, vinyl top, complete tti exhaust, front end kit, misc items. And then its gone. Why is it that   the items I need + the items I want > the money I have?   It is nice to get new parts--even the small things can make a big difference.  A little bit at a time.

  A little bit at a time.

That's the plan.  I try not to get so much stuff that it just sits around (unless it is a good deal).  I like to have parts enough for 2 projects at a time max, otherwise sometimes I feel overwhelemed thinking about once this is done then I have to do that and then that and I also have this other thing to install  :bricks1: But if I only have enough parts for a project or 2 then I can get a little breathing room and everything seems alright.  Plus I'll be able to get other stuff done around the house.
