Yup a couple motors, two bell housings:-) and I am still looking for an extra Driveshaft and O-Type rear end, and I am not averse to another style of Shifter or two:-)

PS: I plan to media blast my chunk of 4 speed floor this week "hump"

Get a driveshaft made, especially with a stick and a few extra ponies under that hood.

Spent a bit of tonight chatting with Nick Morocco about 12 bolt Chevy rear ends, 4.56 gears, driveshafts, slip yokes, pressure plates, clutches, splines, shifters, RamRod shifter shafts, hiem joints.

We really have some similar interests!!!!!!

I have had so much support working on my Cutlass that I try to find a few small situations that I can help others to keep the Karma wheel spinning!! A friend needs a Mustang looked at here in Ontario so I plan to have a look this week:-) I am not sure if this one comes with a saddle, or a propeller, or a steering wheel? As far as I can tell this trip lines up with pick up on the console top plate and a set of #5 heads (cheap I couldn't pass it up)

Had a fun night last night:-)

Visited two Olds guys in TO, picked up the console top plate and was surprised it came with the hinge, screws, bracket, everything but the base. He has two broken bases that I hope to buy to pull a Steve Segal (bond polymers) , got a set of #5 non-W31 heads they look good.

Then I looked at a Mustang GT500 clone for V8TV Kevin Oeste, super nice seller (he uses his ZR1 more)

Then I visited Danny T and picked up some 70 Chevelle parts:-) rear springs, a window winder and a few firewall plugs. Nice visit:-)

All this during rush hour and I slipped around traffic all night:-)

You are the MAN! I like your wit about the Mustang! I'd love to take a spin in one that had a propeller!

Thanks for the fun comments:-) and trafffic Plow:-)

I media blasted and cut out the "hump" today, added some primer.

Progress:-)

Made a small repair (not 100% done) in a tough spot. I started with a bent piece of sheet metal and added a radious and trimmed and trimmed:-) and tacked it in place.

I also placed the original hump in the car but it doesn't sit down flat at all:-( the bumps in the tunnel for the straight rods of the super Shifter hold it away..... maybe it will go into inventory..... for future concourse delegance:-)
