He hates those.

He hates those.

I don't hate them, TT II's look great on everything! and because of that they are too common.

[Darren]

ok so pretty much you wont put them on your car!

Unfortunatly I forgot my camera today. But its still moving forward with some bumps in the road. The spark plugs wires are route properly and looks great! as well as the clips on the foward lamp harness.
Friday we were running the car and Rick thought it had a crossed wire but they were wired correctly. we found out the REBUILT brake booster had a vacuum leak so instead screwing around by sending it back I bought another one that should come in Tuesday. Saturday Darren and Fred helped assemble the front bench seat and installed in the car and Fred painted some more parts. Today I finished routing and securing the heater hoses, loosly assembled the exhaust system(waiting for two muffler supports), installed the other two 15x7 rally wheels and looked many place to buy a bushing for my shift linkage. I will have pictures soon!

Hoping to work on the driver door tomorrow and set the rear quarter glass. by the end of the week I hope to have the exhaust finalized, cam broken in and make or buy a bishing for my shift linkage.

Maybe there is a chance! Oh BTW you can leave some of those pictures on the camera that you took out of this thread

Ohhhh, that's so cute! Darren's is just all over all the guys on the site nowadays!

But seriously - the car is looking awesome Brian, I hope to see it at the M&G (even though that means I'll have no Cobalt to park next to )

[Darren]

Just your typical whore... Too bad there wasnt a pic of three guys all in that seat!

[MP81]

One without pants? That one?

Thanks! There is still lot I have to do before it is drivable and alot more after it is drivable! By the end of the week I should know how well the engine runs, if I need a new carb or if I have any brake trouble.

Looking good Brian.......Just for the record, I didn't think the wheelwell moldings looked terrible.

Thanks! My plan is to drive it for a while without moldings, then add black stripes/ pick out wheels then I will decide if the moldings stay or not.

Today I went to my grandpas to make a bushing for my shift linkage as my brake booster didn't show up like I wanted. But now I my windows are all lined up so I should have my interior buttoned up once my clips hardware show up.

Its alive!
I really haven't made much progress in the past few weeks but I finally recieved the correct carburetor which works well and I replaced my original brake booster!

Right now the power steering stuff is giving me a hard time as well as some grounds but it will be one of the next things to investigate. I went for a quick ride around the parking lot and I am on cloud 9 right now!
