Mounted the rear sway bar. Got the front brake lines and prop valve on. Just got to put clips on to secure the lines. Dug out my e-brake cables, needless to say I'm missing some brackets. Got my tailgate straps in today, it finally works like a tailgate.

Will have to get the front to rear brake line then do the rear axle lines.

Installing SBC motor mounts. From what I've seen online I think I have them in the right places, just want to confirm before I get the suspension installed?

Dropped my rods and new pistons off at the machine shop to have em resized with new bolts and new pistons swapped on. It's supposed to be under 20* most of next week, so it's gonna be a cold b*tch while assembling it. Doubt I'll put it in before spring. As much as i hate the unsafe pos i drive now, i'd rather be upside down in the ditch in that than my car.

I hope you'll let us know what you think of them..... :)
Oh, I plenty like them for the price compared to PIAA, BUT these only seem to last around a year. I guess it's almost a wash considering life span....
Are these an alleged improvement over regular H4's?
Allegedly, yes. They're only 60/55w, but seem brighter. The big thing is having a bulb selection in H4 over the stock sealed beams.

Started to “de-rig” the interior as well as wire up a new mirror. Previous owner must have agreed that the lighting in a T Top car was minimal and added this RV style light. The wiring scares me and I’m glad that it hadn’t caught fire. Shame they put holes in the T Top plastic trim but thankfully I have a replacement. I cut out all of the crappy wire job and redid with heat shrink to protect. Started running wires to temp sender up front but ran out of daylight.
