My first muscle car build thread (lots of pics)

Another day more headaches. Figured out how to jump the solenoid out to crank the engine. Had some issues at first, the battery was barely charging and id just get clicks out of the starter. after cleaning the terminals really good on both ends everything started to finally work. had to crank it over a lot to get oil to the rocker arms since I couldn't fill the oil filter due to its sideways orientation. but i finally got some oil up there. The 25 dollar used new style small starter I got is kicking ***! Bolted on my alt and put the belts on and got the fan on there. Its looking cooler the more stuff I bolt on. After I got the oil moving around the engine I was after some spark. Figured out why my key switch wasn't working. Someone jumped out the column i swapped in. I just rigged it to work for the moment and now my key switch works! I could not for the life of me get any spark! Power to 3 plugs of the computer, power at the coil. not sure why I have no spark. I decided to plug up the remaining holes since it will snow tomorrow. Bolted the carb on and sat the air cleaner on to keep snow out. They are saying 1-3 inches I am hoping that they wont salt the roads but they probably will.
