My first muscle car build thread (lots of pics)

Wasted so much damn time trying to get spark. Found an old crusty electronic distributor laying around and swapped it in and got spark. Then my starter started taking a crap on me. had to beat it with a hammer a lot but finally got the engine running. sounded real good and had a little blowby which I assume is because the rings aren't seated yet. Not one oil leak, so far... Still have plenty of stuff left to do and now I have to find money for a starter and battery. I have to get some pictures too, I have been too frustrated to take any recently.
