Dave does the burn outs while I man the camera and provide commentary. I promise a burn out, but it will be after TA Nats and MCACN....I can't wait.

A lot has gotten done the past few days by me and MPD. It's almost time to swing the engine off the stand, hook up the tranny and swing it into the subframe. I'm excited to get this part finished and move onto the next subgroup on the list.

The front suspension and steering parts are all finished and now installed. I elected to not paint most components and used Rust Prevention Magic ("RPM") on the bare steel instead. It doesn't' took as perfect as painting everything, but I think it looks more correct and is certainly more durable. I did a test strip of metal with RPM 14 months ago and it has been outside the Hot Rod Garage since then weathering. A picture is below. The parts I have done since then have been prepped and coated even better.

Lastly, the wheels are now done and ready for rubber. Hopefully next weekend the wheels will get mounted and the engine/Trans assembly installed. Here's a few pictures.
