Testing out the view








Shameless plug from the fellas at painless. They gave me a sweet deal on a full update kit.

Got some free time this weekend so finally starting to get rolling on getting my car back together.



All of my parts I have recently blasted and painted with SEM trim paint


Got a little frustrated and had to stop for the day when I ran into this problem with my stainless fuel lines


They sent me early 2nd gen lines. I found a problem with my one of my front lines, did not get to check the rear ones since I did not have the car yet. Hopefully they will take care of me like they did the last time.

Made some progress this 3 day holiday weekend. Think I am ready to put the motor and trans back in!

Brake lines and master/booster in. Couldn't find my GM proportioning valve for a few days....luckily I came up with it eventually....lol












Whats left of my bracket pile.

Lets se, the two longs ones are the gas tank straps. The 2 short one look like the braces that go on the sub-frame behind the cross member that always get in the way of headers. That last piece looks like the part dash bracing.

Got the motor reunited with the car today! Exciting times!

Got the new black Powermaster 12si alternator and belts installed. Plus got my Hedman headers mounted up. Had to pull the HVAC box back out and pedal assemblies as I forgot to get a new firewall insulation pad. Oh well! That's how it goes!







Also did some work on the Painless wiring kit, you can check it out in my other thread. http://www.nastyz28.com/forum/showthread.php?t=292957

The way it goes for me, if I don't have to do it twice-I must be doing it wrong--lol
