congrats on the build dude! Its nice to see the car come back to life. enjoy it and keep us posted on further developments. Just out of curiosity...what did the wholel thing cost you in the end soup to nuts? and after its all back together do you still have a salvage title or does it go through some kind of inspection to get a rebuid title or a non-salvage title? good job once again

Looks Great! After putting so much time/money into the rebuild I'm sure you'll be much more cautious with it than most folks your age!

Keep us updated!

did you change the cams and the clutch? and how was it so difficult to place the transmission back in?

rebuild II

hey, and did you have to rebuild the engine because someone tried to started it with the cams removed? seems like the last owner really screwed that car up and if he pulled the cams and replaced the cover that might have been done so illegally. his insurance company would like to know that, that's false pretenses...
