    Get as much done as you can, bring it on a trailer unfinished.   :dunno:   I'd like to see it in any condition.  :2thumbs:

    As promised:
    Week One, June 11th 2015....

    Well, the car is still in storage. I was able to finish the 69 Bee I had in the shop and get that car to it's owner, but before I can bring the AAR in, I have a 70 440+6 Cuda that I have to prep for the body shop. I hope to get the AAR in by next Wednesday.

    All is not lost....I was able to spend 15 hours in the last week working on sub assemblies for the AAR. I had the rear springs re-arched and then I took them apart to paint and detail them. I painted and detailed the power brake booster/master cylinder assembly and I assembled the transmission/engine onto the K Frame. Bucket seats are now fully assembled with seat tracks and everything read to go.

    A VERY SPECIAL THANKS to CC.com member Pimtao , Tim for coming over today to help me with several heavy lifts. We were able to get the transmission and rear axle assembly upstairs and in position of installation.

    .......and it's NOT purple :smilielol:

    Hey!  There's nothing wrong with purple.   For us quiet types, it's the closest we can get to expressing our inner wild child (especially if the "wild child" is usually napping).
