Just letting you know it's still moving forward - the project, that is....not the AMX, yet.  I've decided to just let you know when things have been done, as opposed to, when they are going to be done.  Everything takes folks a bit longer these days, and that's fine by me.

Took the AMX for engine/tranny install last Monday.  Don't know how long it may take him....didn't ask.
When he is done, it will be moving forward on it's own - for the first time in 26 yrs.  I've gone through all others systems of the AMX (fuel, brakes, electrical, etc.), so it should be good to go down the road, but not legally yet.

I will take a pic/vid at that point and post it.  That will wrap up this AMC V8 thread.  It will go to have the dual exhaust with FlowMaster 40 series, and then to my metal working guy to do the metal work that is out of my pay grade.

Then I'll finish up the little things before completing the interior, which shouldn't take long.

Next time, it will have a heartbeat!

Picked up the AMX from my builder yesterday.  It has a heartbeat!  I can't figure out why the .mov file won't upload to Google, but here's a pic.   Hope it works.

Looks good.  I need to find a buddy that can do metal work.  It's above my paygrade as well.
