Are you sure you want to put that in your car?
That is so nice it could be a center piece in your living room.

When is it going in?

Probably not for another 2-3 weeks. I still need to squirt the engine bay and I need it to warm up a bit before I can do it. Also, I need to put in the trans reprogramming kit.

So, hows the weather up there. It's been strange here. 70* one day and 40 the next. And then it rains or is windy or cold, sometimes all of the aforementioned at the same time.
I wish I had a big garage.

Here is a pic of the car as it stands now. I plan on repainting and putting on new decals, etc. The interior is like new (was my dads car).

The weather has finally broke, no more single digit temps, now it is just in the 40's, which is a heat wave.!!!! Every so often it will hit hi 50's. By the time I am ready to paint it sould be in the 50-60's and with a bit more heat from my heater (of course before I spray!) it should work fine.

What color will you paint your car? Keep us updated and take some photos of the motor in the car.

I plan on repainting the same color... The color is ok the way it is, not necessarily my absolute fav but ok...plus I have done several color changes with other cars and I don't want to go thru all that (door jams, every nook and cranny etc and change the color).
