finally got the motor in... next step, the rack and pinion

 

looking good an your engine bay is super good clean... congrats...

 

looks good bro, keep it up!

 

Smart move on putting in the rack and pinion while everything is off except the engine. I like the colors you painted it.

 

Thanks, I don't have the cash for the paint and body. so, I went with cleaning and prepping the engine compartment and painting it the factory silver metallic. I bought a TCP rack that should be shipped next week.
the rotors should be drilled soon. then i'll get the underside stuff finished. i've got to do a lot of sanding to get the old rusted clifford header respectable. when I get the Gt style rear valance and duals installed, i'll be close to firing it up
