Making Progress on backlog of work

Well over the past few months I have had alot of work dropped on my lap, well I have been up for about 18 hours and have made a major dent in that list of work to be done.



Totally finished Tuan's car and Drove it 12 miles to check it out

Short Blocked Larry's Motor (Didn't have the energy to pull it apart)







Started Soaking Rotor_Venom soon to be new carb

Finished Porting Jason's Irons (Streetport)

Dont have the pictures on this

Started Porting Scott's Irons (Half-Bridgeport)

Cleaned some of the Garage

HAHA it is still pretty durty


Well I am tired and there is alot more to come, I bought a new fan last week and it has been a life saver in this heat.


Just a 411 to anyone that is needing work done that I haven't all ready talked to, unless it is something really easy or quick I am going to have to push you back for a few weeks. I will be painting my FD and my Cosmo, then my mothers van (It is to much work to setup a paint booth just do one car.

Thanks for great work Chunk.

On a side note I texted the guy that sold me that car. He told me that 5th gear was rebuilt and that the clutch fork was loose.

^^^ I have 3 sets of twins that should be fine.

Take your pick.

The only rotors and rotor housings I have are rusty curiosities. I use them as gargoyles on my front porch.

What do you think about a white Cosmo?





I think I can dig it!
