Bit more progress.
So moving ahead.
Front sub frame in, engine & box in.
Have to tweak one rack hydraulic line to clear the sump, and a few fiddly little things like that, but it's progress!

I wanted to retain the LSA oil cooler so I opted for the Cadillac oil pan which fits very good. Just barely hangs below the cross member.

Right, I've got a C & R Racing radiator & heat exchanger on the way. Seemed like a good system. I'm loving how much gear is available that's already sorted for a 69/LSA/6 speed setup.

Art Morrison supplies a sub frame/chassis section, you cut out the existing stuff, weld in their one, and the IRS bolts into that. Originally Posted by andrewb70

Don't look hard at the exhaust, it's just tacked, coming out now for a smooth up & finish. Originally Posted by Dragonfly

Been a while!
Well, the cars been at the painters for 14 months, which wasn't what I envisioned, but hey, good things take time right?
It should be back in the workshop in a few days, and we start putting it back together.
So it'll move along then. Really really want this thing sitting on it's wheels!When I die don't let Nina sell my car for what I told her it cost to build.

progress
Sh*t stage for photos, but we're moving ahead.
Waiting for front sub frame to be painted to install engine, gearbox front suspension etc. but back end is in, wheels fit beautifully thank f*#k, & Keith is busy slapping dynamat on anything that doesn't move.
It's awesome to be moving forward again!
