It’s finally ready for a block sanding party
What's your garage ceiling height?
132”
Measurements worked out well; lift is on the highest setting too. Dont need to worry about the Scamp roof hitting the ceiling when putting it up.
Cleaning pistons for my 5.9 Magnum build!

Yup. At least someone is paying attention.
Gettin a little maintanence done on Gladys. She had a wheel seal leaking on the Dana 60 on the passenger's side and also the lock washer on that side needed replacing. It will be here tomorrow and I can set her on the ground, reinstall the axle put the tire back on and fill the rear back up with gear oil. And of course I had to leave behind proof I've been in it. I want to put a PowerTrax lunchbox locker in, just not in the budget yet. Maybe next year.
Also, as you can see, I very recently replaced her shocks too. Gladys is gonna be a happy camper special. lol

Opened the garage door & looked at it.
I do that nearly every night before going to bed.

Good work, just wondering why not use the automatic choke?

On Aluminum heads there is no heat cross over passage. So the choke never actually warms up.

Nice work
I had a pretty fair core to start with, but Tommy White in Racine does a great job with the details. He repaired all guages and speedometer and made it look nice too. He's done a few other jobs for me too. The wiring harness he made for me includes all of the correct colors, connector, flashers, bulbs, etc., and it fits like a glove. Fraction of the cost of some of the big shops.

Parking it for the winter. Had to gas it up first.
Finally got the windshield in my 74 Duster. It wasn't easy, took me about 5 hours. Hardest part was turning the bottom corners with the locking strip. I picked up a tool as part of a kit that was supposed to make putting it in easier...POSAnyhow it's done and I'll never buy another car that needs the windshield put in.
