New updates!

Friday: After work I went straight over to my Dad's and began hooking up everything for it to run. I hit a snag as I began to get tired and tried putting the dizzy on without lining it up properly. The end result are the pictures below...

Saturday: Half the day was spent at the junkyard getting the piece I broke and got a hood for my truck. The other half was spent finishing everything up and ended up starting it!

Sunday: By sunday I was pooped, mentally and physically. I was tired of working on my car but pressed on to get ready for the road...

Its a little rough looking but I plan on getting a new bumper since I'm pretty sure mine is bent down from the accident.

Tomorrow's agenda is to put my new driver side axle and upper radiator hose on. After that it should be ready.

Thanks man! Just freshening up the motor though, no swap. Good luck on yours!

Ended up cleaning the motor a bit last night...

Had my dad take some parts to work clean in their machine as well. Beats having to get all the grime off them by hand.

Saturday consisted of ordering engine parts, painting some other parts, and helping my buddy by hauling gravel.

Grand total...

Untitled by NButtz, on Flickr

Only a half yard of gravel... 0.0

Then on Sunday I got up early to get these...

Also I have ordered some Goodridge Stainless braid brake lines so those should be here by the end of the week to be installed as well. Will be going to Honda at the end of the week to get all the seals I need for the motor as well.
