Thanks Ken, but they never came like that from the factory!...you might have got black paint, but that was about it!

Like others have been saying, better than new. I'm jealous and excited for you....some day, Duncan.smilieFordlogo

If I were married, those parts would be sleeping next to me, and the OL would be in the garage.

I think that would stand true until Bailee ( I can never remember how to spell her name! sorry ) found out about it... In which case you would be sleeping in the dog house, or garage, with your parts...

HAHA...and yeah, you spelled it right. You got that right though...she's 5'2" 120lbs of blue twisted steel. True story...I've discussed 'dream garages' with her before, and her words exactly were 'You better make plans for a loft in it for when you piss me off...' HAHAHAHAHA.

Got the axle shafts back all dry filmed, as well as the last transmission pieces (thinking I missed the yolk nuts), dropped them off at the transmission rebuilders.
Hoping to have the frame in within the next couple of weeks.

Looks good Duncan!

New place im working at has a powder coat set up and oven. :) I've been given the blessing of using it when i need, as long as im not interfering with production...

That would be handy!

I've been waiting for an update forever!

I've slowed down a bit due to work and the fact that it wont be going in for paint before the spring.

That looks like a pretty hefty tranny cooler! "Do Not Bend"? Me thinks it would take a pretty hefty person to bend a tie rod, but at least they were being cautious!
