Im assuming you have read my old posts and know that im new with this stuff haha. Yes its an 86 block and its roller compatible.

Well yesterday I was all prepared to pull an all day work session when I got a bad stomach ache. I just got back from the hospital and I had my appendix removed. So now I have to wait. The car is just taunting me to finish it. This sucks

Well I still cant really do much because of my stupid appendix but the insurance guy came over because of the accident I was in a while back. Here's the damage





After looking at the damage he wrote me a check for $1210.48. I think I got a pretty good deal.

Yeah I was surprised when he handed me a check and left. I wasn't expecting that much. I plan on getting the rest of the pieces I need for a 5 lug swap and then saving for paint.
