I'll be going for sure ! And thanks . I can't believe I've lost so many emblems already . Makes me mad . haha . But it's good to know that Fridays the big day for it as far as meet n greet . Sounds like fun . Although I'm a little scared in the fact that I really don't know what I'm doing in this motor but it's running . . What I don't know is keeping my sanity I think . But I'm afraid to see what's wrong inside . haha I'm kinda guessing and if it starts it must be right . But that's not always true . Haha it's puring like a kitten though ,and if it gets better , bonus . And yep I have a three main in this car . I know it's odd but there it is . I have the dome pistons too . I guess there's some flat ones out there . But it's a runner for sure . Idk if motors we're swapped or what but I have the smog distributor too so timing was interesting . Especially when u have no clue . haha thanks for the support . Everybody is sick of hearing about it here . But idk I think it's interesting .

I know you can't see much in picture But basically it is courtesy lights ,both driver and passenger door working ! Thanks much . Oh and I got the rings for my tires And cleaned up the over spray on the steelies . White Walls tomorrow . I'm thinking Ajax and scrubbed good . Anyway found them on line after you told me the name to look for . I'm leaving the color until I get them just to see how they look after all clean and sharp looking . I'm hoping they'll pop better with color . If not I'll take them to steel again . But since I don't have ant more paint rt now , I'll leave to see first .

Welcome...You should drive down for Solvang at least for Friday night meet and greet. Tons of fun.
As for your wheels, I suggest Beauty Rings.

If you search "Beauty Rings" there are some threads about suppliers....IIRC they were about $75 through Amazon.
Hey Phil,
Since you're showing off my beauty rings in the picture don't expect a cut when I offer them to Lorna. :lol:

Lorna - I'll be at Solvang and I can bring these if you like (I do think the rules state that since I'm not a vendor and haven't applied as one I can't sell there) and you can look at them. I live just up the road from you in Nipomo (we have chatted before).

Hey I finally found my serial numbers on the black, somewhere I remember needing to put it somewhere back a while ago and don't remember where . If anyone reads this still can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it . Oh and header information is crazy and I'm not sure what I've read after I m done . But I know it's important to get the right one for my car and the way I drive . Ugh . I hope the next I get holds for a while . If I can get the facts straight and get the right one . Ugh no fun . Ok well that's it for now .
