    Here's so updated pic's of what I got done lately. Going a little slow with the chemo slowing me down. We
    got the gas tank in, the rear axle housing in, brake and fuel lines ran to the front. It's actually starting to look like a car again.
    Oh, sway bar is in too.   :2thumbs:

    Looks good Andy! Glad to see you're making progress. Won't be long until you get behind the wheel I hope. Hope you're feeling ok as well, what with the chemo and all. Looks like Murray's still got that platinum shop to work in as well.  :thumbsup:  Ian

    Tonite I finished polishing my tail lights  and installing the taillight retaining clips. Oh ya, we painted the tail panel a couple of days ago with organisol.

    And if  I feel good tomorrow afternoon, I head over to the machine shop and hopefully finish boring out the block.
    We finished line honing last week ,the day before chemo started again. Sure was a nice way to lift up the spirits
    by getting something done like that.

    I'm really trying to have it done for Carlisle. And Nat's too. I guess we'll see.

    Is this list still current?  Andy, I've been a member here for quite a while but don't log on often due to my busy family life, but want to offer my prayers to you and your family.  My wife is a physician and if there's anything you need help understanding (deciphering reports, films, terms, etc.) just let me know and she'll do her best to answer them.  As far as parts go, I'm rebuilding my 73 'Cuda and will have extras laying around, so I hope we can get a current list of what's still needed so I can help with parts or even cash.   :2thumbs:

    Ok trying to figure out what to bring? If I have it , it's yours! I have a rebuilt holley 750 3310 carb? I know it's not optimal but it will get you going?   I have a driveshaft that will be needed to be cut down/shortened? A working 727 tranny?  Lets get this thing making noise this weekend!  :aarg:
