It has been my full time job being in the unemployment Union from last March 31st.
I just don't like the setbacks like taking apart the tranny to rebuild it and finding it is broke in the low gear cluster, Got another TH350C trans yesterday, this one is from a truck with electric overdrive switch optional.

90 degree brake set up in position, just needs the proper bolts (parts run time)
Exhaust in place
My custom design for a transmission rear mount is in place as is the driveline loop.
And the build continues

Starting to see more light at the end of the tunnel.
Fitting up the engine with hoses and running needed lines. Also have the 3" exhaust to the back of the body.
Sheet metal time for the floor
