Also hats off to Bweavy again too. He spent all weekend working on this car with the help of Banning, Charlie, and Neil. Somebody is going to win a practically brand new car

pics

Sorry for sending Shane & Ryan the same pics. I figured 1 of you would get them posted while Charlie,Neil,& I were working last night.
Kelli & Kasci also helped out alot running & getting parts. Cleaning parts up etc...

Frame paint was done with hi -temp engine paint.

The mounts for the console were also cut down. We had them in place to drill for the marks. I was going to weld them in but the floor sealer was flamable.
No I didn't find out the hard way

Ran into a snag donated lifters were missing. Found them this morning so now we can roll.

Just wanted to give an extra Thanks for Chuck Leeper & Pat's convertors for getting the parts here Saturday.

Charlie,Kelli,Kasci,Banning,Neil & even little B I know I thanked you for going the extra mile this weekend but want to state it publicly. Thanks again for all of your Hard work. It would never have got this far this weekend with out ya'll!!!

Shane thanks for Donating a new set of Bilstein Shocks. Shane is too humble to post that.

Brian & Shane: I'm glad I could help. It was fun!

Thanks to all the vendors and other individuals that have donated their time, parts & money on this project. Just like others have said... this car is REALLY NICE! Whomever wins it will be blown away when they see it.

Please remember that PayPal donations are accepted for this raffle. Every little bit counts, and it all goes to a good cause!

Thanks again for giving me the opportunity to give back to a community that has given so much to me.

-Banning.

Little update

I misplaced my camera! Took pics of our tubular upper control arms & T/A's rear Girdle powder coated blue to match Daniel Ray's Pin stripe.
They are installed.

Metco Drive shaft loop installed.

Scan master & new Shifter cable from S/E turbo installed.

Motor is done just waiting on powder coated parts to get back. We powder coated a few things to keep it moving.

Nick from A/Z GN donated black T/A valve covers & they are installed as well as the new A/C compressor. Weird seeing that on a car they are normally attached to the lines & left in the engine bay.

We'll be getting a new impact strip & the 1 piece air dam installed tomorrow. Seats should be in tomorrow as well.

Any way we will have a man hunt for the camera tomorrow & get up some more pics.

Once our Powder coated parts get back we will be rolling!!!

Calling it a night.

Hard to believe 13 days before the drawing. Good luck everyone.

It is impossible to believe this much has been done to the car in this short amount of time.

GREAT JOB so far.

Brian,

If it is holding you up, I can go get the parts from Kevin tomorrow and overnight them to you. Last time I talked to him (Dec 1) he was waiting on more parts to arrive to powdercoat. Let me know if I can be of assistance.

John
