I know I am slacking on the pics and stuff, Picked up a free spare 216 engine from the freebies section of the forum- had a good carter carb(now on the 49) and plenty of spare sets of push rods and lifters and such-
Besides an immaculate head and block
Thanks Jim and sons in Independence.
So today- got the carb set up, and installed the left front fender- wired up the head and park lights- installed the grill- Tomorrow the right front fender and headlight- Saturday the bed- Then I will drive it for the first time! WOW!!!
