Little steps, but it would be awesome to hit the track at the end of May.

I filled the spot welds, the fuel line hole, the wireing holes that went over the passenger side for the 2 connectors that connect to the engine harness. The only things I left were the holes for the junction block and ground.

a little more progress. Just need to finish up the 24x harness bolt up some exhaust and run the front body harness. Hopefully I'll have it running in the next few weeks

This takes so much damn time to keep it nice. If I wasn't being so picky it would be running by now.

The car runs 10's on the bottle. I doubt it runs tens on motor this year after adding the heavier 9" and huge 35 spline axles.
I just wanted to clean things up and make it easier to work on. it would be nice to see an improvement in ET with the LID and 24x system going in (hopefully to solve old ignition problems I had) but thats a stretch.

Thanks
Closer yet now. A couple friends came over and helped yesterday. Adam routed and loomed most of the wiring it almost complete. Exhaust is on driveshaft in etc.
I need to run fuel lines and brake lines, finish looming wiring and install my coils and plug wires and it should be ready to start.
