yeah, she is locked up. Its just as well, since thus far, the only thing that has been serviceable has been the starter,compensator,and Generator motors. Of course, they came apart anyway for a check out. This is a total top to bottom overhaul.

Since my 452 came with all Auto-Lite, I have a set of delco motors on their way from California along with my new torsion bars.

Front and rear suspension parts will be here on Tuesday so the plan is to have a rolling chassis by next weekend. then on to the Engine and Trany.

Headed up to Grand Rapids next week to pick up the Rotisserie so I can get the body mounted and then I wont have to work overhead anymore. Hopefully the winter temps will cooperate, the Daughter wants it done for her wedding in June. Here is to hoping.
