Its been 19 months since the last time I drove the car. Keith at Ice Nine Customs is going to be doing the squirting. http://www.iceninecustoms.com/

I had good help this weekend so were able to get a lot done. Jeremy and I logged in a bunch of hours; many thanks to him for make the trip up here and busting his sack working on the car. There were some small things that prevented us from getting it running but I don't consider it any real set-back. There is a ton of work to do that has to be done no matter what. We could have cobbled up a few things to make it run but that doesn't really put us any farther ahead is just not the way we do things.

Jeremy had an engine sling so we thought it'd be easier to put the engine in with the Trans attached - not so. I'll never do it that way again in a 3rd gen.

One of the jokes of the weekend was the 'pimpy' red wire loom that I had to buy at Advanced auto for the trailer hitch and brake install that we put on my pickup. You'll notice it routed around the engine 1x and through the header. Jeremy recently installed a brake controller and hitch set-up on his Tahoe so he knew exactly what was needed for my pickup. He put together a parts list for me and we knocked out the whole hitch + lights + brakes install in ~4 hours or so. It's nice to have that done since I will be getting a trailer soon hopefully.

On Thursday night I painted the visible areas on the outside flat black to cut down on glare and it looks a heck of a lot better.

Some parts need ordered, some parts need to be received in the mail, I have a lot of wiring to do still, I think I forgot some bolts at the paint shop, and there are a million small things to do still. Oh, and I'm so glad there aren't fenders on this thing right now.
