New pics - engine is mostly complete.
Got the "bracket soup" figured out. Then figured out I restored the wrong alt bracket so I'll need to do some more blasting and painting. The one I have finished looks like the alt mounts on the pass side?
Driveline cleaned and painted - main section in eastwood detail gray, ends in cast gray.
Rear is done & this is almost back on all 4s. Yah its a chevy rear, but its what the car came with. This will probably suffice until I can find an 8.5. Cover is not painted because somebody pried at the bottom with a screwdriver to remove it so I'm holding out for a better one.
Love this view.
