Default Oh yeah.... rest of the parts are here!!

I've go so many parts in my basement.. I don't know if they'll all fit in the back of my truck LOL, I think by the time I'm done with this wave of mods, I'll have replaced about 1/2 the car now.... I have sitting in the basement:

Sonic Snake's old TH400, fresh back from hughes
Converter that he and Ken had built..
3.5 inch alum driveshaft for TH400
Hughes flexplate for TH400
BMR chromoly TQ arm, bye bye spohn heavy *** bar that bottoms out.
BMR driveshaft safety loop
BMR TH400 tranny crossmember with TQ arm relocation built in
Flexlite tranny cooler
15 feet if 6AN line for the cooler
6AN fittings for cooler lines
Hurst pistol grip Quarter stick shifter, along with the cable, etc.etc.
Poly tranny mount
QA1 shocks, 12 way rears, R series fronts
A4 console to notch up for the shifter.
Dipstick for the tranny.. came with the tranny
Autometer ultralight tranny temp guage, that's gonna go in the dash vent.
CSR tranny scattershield.. just in case, and for rules, not sure when it's needed, but always a good idea.
My bogarts, that need a new set of rear's and I'll probably replace the fronts


Big *** pile of parts LOL. And to think, once that stuff is out, I'll have room to put all the A/C parts, the radiop, speakers and anythign else I can find to take out for weight reduction.... Just in time for spring



I'm getting anxious now...... getting closer by the day... can't wait

There is alot to do.. I'm having the shop do the tranny swap, that's more then I want to do on my back in my driveway I still have alot of work to wo with the weight reduction,. gotta remove the a/c, find a plate to fill the radio opening in the dash, then remove the radio, every speaker in the car along with every inch of wire for that stuff, find a plug so I can remove the power antenna, or at least a manual antenna to put in it's place that I can just put a really short one on for looks, got to pull the rotors and have tehm cut and put some new pads on still gotta put the shocks on the car, rears are easy, but fronts I have to pull them off, bring thme to the shop so they can machine the spring cups so I can use the stock springs.. alot to do. I wish I could have got teh $ together and got all the parts a couple months earlier so it would be ready by spring.. but I do what I can afford.. that's all I can do right?
