Robj ... thank you for the invite ... wish i would of seen it in time! ... my Son is there now enjoying the show. Im at home taking care of the wife (had gallbladder removed Yesterday) ...
I got the brake lights to work replaced all the bulbs and some fuses.
I have to manually blink the turn lights tho ... replaced the blinker fuses and the lights .. found my top driver side blinker is missing the cable from the socket. So im guessing until that is replaced im stuck blinking it myself lol.
Had the backseat fixed up (had a rip along the top of the seat along the seem)
Gave her a face lift as well ... painted the grill black to get rid of the grandma's look she had
I did just get myself her first upgrade tho! ...Big block 440!.. Craigslist for 431$ ... with the engine stand!! ...
Has forged crank ... 6 pack rods ... has the 516 heads ... gonna find me some 452 heads and get a set of pistons to put me around 9:3:1 compression .... keep her a nice reliable Daily driver.
Anyway .. just wanted to update where im at and check in ... gonna try and get her into Peggy Sue's here in town in June.
