This week has been a clean, scrape, blast, and paint week. It is nice to have a rolling frame to get in and out to work on.

I have managed to locate the trackbar bushings as well as the upper rear control arm bushing. Moog K8136 and Moog k8447. I have been told that these will fit with very little modification. I will post the specifications and outcome once they arrive.
I have cleaned and painted the drive shaft. The front control arms are finished and ready for the shelf until bushings arrive. I also have finished a few odds and ends from the front end.

Digging through the barn, I have found a front break drum and rear break drum. I will be restoring those later on in the week as extras or to be sold. I also have acquired a 2bbl carb I will be rebuilding and selling for parts money. This came off of the 390 I purchased a few years ago and I forgot it was on a shelf.

This week will be a slow week and I do not expect to get much finished. It will be mostly a cleaning and preparing week. I will decide this week if I am going to use the C6 transmission or the Cruse - o - Matic. Although I know the C6 will be more reliable, I am not sure I can find a new cross member to fit the C6.
