We are not that far away from each other, your welcome to stop by anytime. I'd like to check out your project sometime. Warm weather is coming I may have to go for a bike ride down your way sometime.

Whoa! I am surprised, you missed out until now. I swear you have been in just about every thread. Well practically every thread. Ha!

Yep it is amazing what can be done. Knowing how to weld and some body work really makes a huge difference when setting on doing a build.

I do probably need a life outside of my AMC addiction, lol.  I got over it for years, but now that I'm retired.... IT'S BACK!!

Well it's been awhile since my last update, work and life gets in the way of getting much done on the car and otherwise. On the interior the AC box was disassembled cleaned and painted new gaskets made and the condenser pressure tested. No plan to install AC right away but while I'm at it prep as much as possible. I also disassembled cleaned, checked and tested the switch assembly of the dash but install will have to wait till I order carpet. I also disassembled cleaned and painted the rear quartet window assemblies. Changed out the seals and after putting them back together they work so smooth. They still have yet to be installed and adjusted but their on the big list On the outside most of the stainless was installed after I a little elbow grease. In the engine compartment a new radiator and shroud from Wizard Cooling was installed. Headers came next the fitment was good. Because of ease of access the clutch linkage and strut rod on the drivers side was left out till the steering column gets installed. It was disassembled cleaned and reassembled with new grease on the bearings and electrical grease on all connections.

               Thanks again for following along.
