The engine and tranny look pretty clean, and the frame looks darn solid, though the exhaust is far from stock. Nice amount of work you have tackled!
Judging purely by the relative cleanlieness, and the color of the block, it looks like that engine may have already been rebuilt at least once! Did you do a compression check on it?
And from the one picture, the body looks pretty solid too.
Keep posting, I'm enjoying your pictures and progress.

Can't you please put [Img] tags around your photos, in that way, we dont have to click on every link you post.

Great write up Btw.

Sorry for the inconvenience Chris. I tried the IMG tags and something happened where they just didn't appear, so I had to resort to that method. Sorry about that, dunno what happened that the images just disappeared from my post first. I promise I am familar with BBCode despite what it may appear to be.
So that's not a stock exhaust? Hmm, didn't know that...so I'm learning new stuff every day.
And I believe the engine was rebuilt once before...because they had the head and all painted when I got it. No compression check...yet :D
