Another 3rd gen build

[zeeman]

Well 3 of the 4 pans are good . The drivers side needs some work, still way better than mine and the seat rails are good. I might have to fabricate the floor for the drivers side, I have one more avenue to explore. I added a head liner and drivers fender to my order. The fender the former owner provided was for a firebird and didnt have the hole for the vent.

I had to push the T/A out of the garage today for the jeep engine r&r so I took some pictures. Now you all can see how screwed I really am.

I have a replacement, fender and 2 doors coming, 2/3rds of the floor, and a bunch of small parts. I have a hood its not the greatest, needs work. Still need a console top. but were getting there. picked up some spot weld cutters today , and an angle grinder. Tomorrow I pick up the Jeep engine and begin ripping that out. And I need to call on my 5.3 harness. busy days ahead.

^ who is this person? Has been posting incoherent stuff all over the forum this morning.

Edit: He gone

Its saint pattys day, they started drinking early today.

[zeeman]

Yeah, I know, its a mess. For right now its going to go on the back burner for a bit. I picked up my Jeep engine today. Got butt raped over it, but it was the best deal I could find. The whole front of the Jeep has to be removed from the clip .Grill, bumper cover, radiator , shroud, header etc. to make enough room. It took me most of the morning to figure out that I needed to start with the grill and work in. Oh well its about halfway disconnected. Lot of work to get this thing done. Then Ill go back to work on the T/A.

[zeeman]

revolutions.... got it.... thanks ......................wtf?

[zeeman]

Ok. Just a quick update. The parts that I have coming, have been delayed .But since its on the back burner......oh well.... I have the jeep engine installed , just need to finish connections and test fire. This has been the worst engine change Ive ever done. Next time Ill just do a 5.3 conversion, at least Ill get some performance out of it that way.
