I've got plenty of time to be ready...I'll be pulling it back into the garage after I get the shelves built and start on the rear link suspension since the rear shocks should be delivered today.

Well, I would say you made it well past sticking two pieces of metal together.

Are you using Mig or Tig?

 

[fishinfool98]

Started with stick in Alaska and moved to Florida and started mig

Very cool, I see you get the twin stick installed too.

Is that panel in the dash your gauge cluster?
