The gas tank is installed.

I think that I'm ready to install the front hood as soon as I can line up some helpers.

I painted the gas cap with Eastwood's cad paint system. The finished look is pretty good with this stuff.

That was my goal when i started. I did get a little carried away (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

I'll have a nice driver when i'm done (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif)

You'll have maore than a "nice" driver when you're done, you'll have an awsome driver! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) Makes me feel like such a slouch for just wanting to put one together to drive. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) Of course, I do drive mine as much as possible, rain or shine, so I guess I wouldn't want one quite that nice. I'd be afraid to park it in a parking lot for fear of door dings. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) That's one beeeutiful car.

I've been getting parts ready for installing the tin on my engine. I tried to speed things up, but I just couldn't bypass the cleaning and painting of many of the parts. It takes more time than planned (nothing new here (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) ) but the end result ....

A lot of the steps move along slow because it is the first time that I have delt with many of these items. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)

I'm learning!!

Simply follow the illustrations.... Right???

Mostly alternator pieces. I had no idea that there were so many pieces in the alternator assembly.

I used SS fasteners to attach the blower housing halves together. I stick with the 8.8 grade on items where the proper strength is needed.
