Thanks Jim! Getting there piece by piece. It just sucks I only get to wrench on it maybe once a week, that's why it takes so long for me to get stuff accomplished! I'm hoping to have a portable garage setup by spring, and if so the Cutlass will come home and I will be able to speed up some! I would like to have the drivetrain bolted in before though since my brother n law has a nice flat driveway and garage floor, unlike the jacked up driveway at the house we're renting.

Btw, how's the house progress coming alongup there?

House is moving slow. I am building my dad's house at the same time as mine, just staggered a few weeks ahead. So his foundation is in, and my hole will get dug in a week or so.

I haven't really had time to work on the Cutlass much lately. Last weekend I only had a few hours so I attempted to install the astro shaft, but I ended up getting pissed because I screwed up some of the splines awhile back! Luckily I had time today to hunt another one down. Hard to pass up $6.77 out the door!!!!

Also, my brother n law was off work today and decided to roll the Cutlass out into the sun to blow the dust off and wipe it down. He sent me some pics, so here are a few. I love the color more and more, and it just looks mean!!!!

Hopefully I can get some assembly time in soon! That's it for now guys, cheers!

Thanks guys! I have to give credit to Brian for getting some decent pics of it today while I was 2 hours east of home shredding paper! I'd love to finish getting the window trim installed, it's being stubborn and I don't want to screw up the powdercoat!

Small update guys. I had a couple hours to tinker with the Cutlass today, so I managed to dig out the door glass from safe storage and get them installed. Now I have to figure out to hotwire the window motors to raise the glass, but that'll be after the weatherstripping is on.

Anyways, I'm glad to have all the glass in finally and here are a couple pics....
