Alright update!!!!
So I have been kind of busy, but I got the motor in place mocked on some wooden blocks and measured up the trans tunnel got that sort of mocked in as well.
Then went and scored a air compressor and media blaster full of media!!!!
tested that out last night, going to get a few more parts for it and see if I can get some soda to clean up the floor pans for the new trans tunnel!!!!
And now what you are really here for is pictures (all like 2 of you)
Before the Shave
Cleaned up the garage a for a bit more space
And the welder is on a nice lil cart
Getting the motor in place is not exactly a one man job
So I used straps
She is in I did radius the trans tunnel area a bit since I have to weld it in anyway
Trimmed the trans tunnel down and got her in
Holes line up great
Also with the stock hand brake mounts intact
My CL score all for less than the compressor cost (still had the sticker on it)
And then some of the wonderful Previous owner's work
I'll try and get some more work in this weekend
