Christmas came early for Power Company I turn it on today and streetlights blinked

Man how fast you can forget I when to garage today and did some blasting

I've Said it Before, I'll Say it Again. If you can get some one to blast the body for you it is worth it

[Smock67]

How much extra clearance due you think the Caprice tunnel gives you? I want to clear a 6 speed.

Love the project.

If you were in the States I have a friend who would want your torque tube left over from the swap.

Wow man, you are really busting your ass on that car and it's starting to come together finally. Progress is an awesome thing.
