Thanks it’s a little exaggerated than the real one

A few days ago I finally got around to putting in my new headliner. It was a Christmas gift from a relative and was ordered from Rock Auto. It was already fabric covered and matched perfectly. Took me a few hours and I think I spent more time putting on the old sunvisors. Found out I need to replace them also.

Ordered a new starter from Rock Auto and that will go in soon. My starter in the car is the original and has been starting(no pun intended!) to act up.

Also ordered a new set of floor mats from Original Parts Group that were on sale. They are the fabric kind and looked good. Cannot wait to put them in to replace my old ones that are way past due.

So with the new headliner and mats I am finally getting a few cosmetic things done I had to put off due to family medical issues the last few years.

RockAuto has noticed the number of times it is cited on this website. Visit the For Sale tab...

I ordered a pile more stuff from rockauto and Summit. Hope the hooker blackheart exhaust system sounds as good as the internet videos. 😀

I thought about how I am going to have about 3.5 weeks of leave to work on it over the holidays starting in a few hours.

Now should I do rust repair or build an engine for the Monte? 😉 Engine. 😀

Finished all my body mount locations on the frame, notched the frame for the LT1 Impala compressor, pulled the clamshells out (why would GM make it sooooo difficult to access motor mount bolts?) Installed the new urethane mounts. Waiting on the brown truck to bring my hellwig reinforcement kit and UMI notch kit.

Nothing left to really be done until after the holidays. Maybe this winter I might actually get the heat working. Still can't drive it far. Has 3 bad tires (2 bald 🙄🙄) and one with a split from hopping a curb due to a piece of sh*t in a Taurus trying to kill me. I also need to install the front springs and shocks, and while I'm under there I might as well get some BJs (heh), end links, bushings for all 8 control arms, bushings for the thicker sway bar, install the rear sway bar, get the GN rear under there, new driveshaft, new transmission and TC, some exhaust, rebuild the carb I have on the shelf... It's gonna be a while. But, it runs. That's what's important. Building an engine is the make or break part of building a car. Often times it's the most expensive and time consuming part, especially if it goes wrong. It runs good, really good. So I'm happy with that.

Break that overhaul into small bites. Don't blow it all apart. Keep it rolling.
