Whelp,
Here is my current progress as of 2/14/08 Just finished the rear crossmember after 5 trips to the parts store and 4 different orders. Seems the manufacturer was having trouble getting the right part in the right box with the right part #. Lot of work to get the right engine mount.
Whats the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results? Yeah, I was close to committing myself.
Anyway the cross member is finished except for the paint. I wanted to blast and paint yesterday but it decided to rain all day. We decided to be on fire the two days B 4. It is snowing now.
And yes I know. The head is not painted. I got lazy.
