Old cars are so much more interesting with something unique under the hood, and an original 6 banger is certainly that. Thanks.

Now we are cleaning every part that will not be painted, and powder coating them. The body should be ready and painted later this month. Engine block and components are ready to pick up. Ready for upholstery soon. The transmission is complete. Transfer case and axles have not yet been touched, except for draining. The vehicle was shipped to NC from Arizona. Had a dead scorpion in a rear drum.
