    well sunday i got the engine/trans removed from the parts car and dropped into the red car.

    monday i ordered some parts for it, but mainly moved some cars around in the junkyard so i didnt work on it much.

    needless to say today i got everything finished up, new parts installed, exhaust welded up and drove it about 40 miles today here around town.... i like it :yahoo:

    here's some pics after i cleaned the interior and dyed the carpet (yes, it's the factory carpet. it was just faded) and i went ahead and put some pans and rings on it.
