Finally got word from the tag office to bring the car for vin inspection. Told them I would bring it in a couple weeks. I'm having issues with the Holley 600 that is built from 3 different carbs. I think its sucking air around the throttle shaft. I bought a brand new one and plan on bolting it on today. I've been working on the rear bumper and urethane fillers. I dug out my rear bumper fillers from my shed and the long ones are crumbling. I removed one inch from my bumper mounts and that pulled the bumper closer to the tail lights. I pushed it all the way up but still had a gap. I then noticed the bottom of the bumper was higher than the bottom of the quarters. I have another rear bumper here so I cut both bumpers lengthways where the impact strip attaches. I cut one high and the other low and tacked it back together. This made the bumper taller by about an inch. It fits very close to the bottom of the taillights and its even with the bottom of the quarters. I also cut off the top of the extra bumper piece and welded those on for extensions. I removed one inch from the corners and tacked them back on. Had to modify the side urethane fillers also. I scratch built a licence plate lower surround that bolts on. I ordered some license plate lights from Speedway but they have not come in yet. I've been on this bumper 3 days and still have seams and holes to weld up.
